WINDING SKEINS
& BALLS OF YARN
Yarn handlers need to prepare skeins:
Spinners need to skein yarn from bobbins to set the twist. Knitters and weavers skein yarn from cones
or balls to full them or dye them.
There are easier ways to make a skein than winding yards and yards
of yarn over your hand and
elbow!

Niddy
Noddies
Watching
a pro use a niddy noddy is fascinating -
fluid, graceful
and efficient movements. Great tool for a reasonable price for
the occasional skein. The sampler
niddy noddies are a "must have" in every spinner's
basket! Don't know how to use a niddy noddy?

Winding
and Unwinding Skeins
For
delightfully fast, efficient winding of skeins,
you
can't beat the tools specifically made for that job! We have beautiful skeinwinders
and
swifts in a broad range of styles and prices -- all much better than
begging a family member to sit
patiently holding a skein between their hands
while you wind balls, or struggling to unwind a skein
draped over the back of a chair. Get the tools you need and spend more time spinning or knitting.
