About this item
I have completed 2 of these that convert a standard bowl or container into a yarn bowl. It simply sits on the top edge which contains your yarn or wool,( shown) a nylon thread tightens to prevent slippage (and damage to your bowl). An open metal hook guides your work. It will slip over a rim up to 20mm. If your prefer the metal loop to be closed then simply add a message to your order. These are made from Oak and have a quality wax finish I have given the knob ‘Pig’ features to reflect that some call these ‘Yarn or knitting pigs’ I am aware that for fair isle knitting 3 loops would be ideal, I will add this option shortly Not suitable for your bowl? - drop me a line and I’m happy to make to your specifications, but as made to order please allow a few more days

I enjoy creating from wood and trust you will enjoy your choices. I use the Post Office 48hr service for parcels they are slightly more expensive but reliable and treat parcels with more respect than others!, if your purchase is urgent however contact me and for a little more I can send next day. I strive to recycle, the majority of my wood stock has been accumulated over many years, and in some cases donated, and this , I believe, helps to keep prices reasonable. To reduce my carbon footprint I make my own packages using salvaged cardboard - quite interesting as well!. The packaging tape and minimal bubble wrap sadly cannot usually be reused.

Bought 1 itemAbsolutely delighted with these items. After a quick coat of bees wax finishing polish, the swift is set up and working perfectly. Also looking forward to learning to use the drop spindle. Great communication with seller and I really appreciate the use of recycled materials for packaging my order. Thank you!
