Ah, I want one so bad haha. Never even thought about a yarn winder until I watched your video where you set up your craft room and wound all those old skeins into cakes. So satisfying. Now I really want one 😂

I bought one on a whim just before Christmas. Best thing EVER! Any scraps that come along, I'll wind up. Things that need undoing, like that knitted double stranded blanket, are now caked. Messy looking orange and smaller sized balls are now caked. That HUGE skein of cotton that has been a pain to work from is now caked into 7 different cakes. I got a 20-ish dollar one and it works fine. If it broke now, it was still worth it.

I just got a giant wooden one for my birthday and I love it. Mine doesn't wind it into a cake but it helps so much with keeping yarn tidy when you have to start a project from scratch!😊

I think this is very much useful to keep the yarn in a perfect manner. I had no idea on them before. I use to wind the yarn with the help of my hands. Seems to be easy to do with it. Lovely share.

@GabrielleduVent3 жыл бұрын
It turns into a necessity when you realise that you have 100 skeins of yarn coming and you would have to wind them all by hand, or invest some 40 dollars (winder and swift) to save yourself some serious grief.

@sylvia44253 жыл бұрын
So skiens are made to pull thru the center and crochet from them directly. However, I quickly learned today that they can get knotted up. Would turning a skein into a cake reduce the "yarn barf" I've been seeing on KZbin? (aka massive knots! lol) Anyways, even when rolling it into a cake wouldn't the skein still have yarn barfs we'd have to contend with to begin with?
@Katieree3 жыл бұрын
Hey Sylvia! Rolling into cakes definitely decreases yarn barf significantly!! Unfortunately not all skeins are created equal and although they may look neat on the outside the inside can be a completely different story 😅 It’s very hard to get yarn barf once you’ve rolled it into a cake 😊

Hi, I have a question. Doesn't the wool get damaged when it is rolled up compared to the skein ? Because the strand is tighter.
