Wooden Yarn Winder & Umbrella Swift, Rosewood or Beech, Knitting Tools (Combo)

This wooden yarn winder and umbrella yarn swift come in rosewood or beech. Buy the winder on its own, the swift on its own, or both together as a combo.

The yarn ball winder turns a skein or hank of yarn into a neat cake that you can pull from the center. The umbrella swift holds the hank open and turns as you wind, so nobody has to hold the yarn on their hands.

HOW THE WINDER AND SWIFT WORK TOGETHER
Open the umbrella swift and set the untwisted hank around it. Take the yarn end across to the ball winder and secure it there. Turn the handle at an even pace: the swift turns as the yarn feeds off it, and the winder builds the yarn into a cake. When you finish, slide the cake off the winder and start knitting or crocheting from the strand in the center.

WHY WIND YARN INTO A CAKE
A wound cake sits flat in your bag or on the table, so it does not roll away while you work. Pulling from the center keeps the cake still, and winding a hank before you start saves untangling it halfway through a project. Use it as a wool winder for wool, cotton and blended yarns.

WOOD
Rosewood is the dark wood and beech is the light wood. Natural grain and color vary from piece to piece, so yours will not match the photos exactly.

A GIFT FOR KNITTERS AND CROCHETERS
A wooden yarn winder and swift are knitting tools that get used every time a new hank comes home, which makes them a practical gift for knitters and crocheters.
