Notions & Tools

Clover spent ten years developing this winder, and you can tell!  Here at the shop, we've blown through a lot of winders.  Even the "best" winders haven't held up to the demands of a busy yarn shop -- until we found this one.  It costs more, but if you wind a lot of yarn and you want a ball winder that really lasts, this is the one.  We've been amazed by the performance of this winder after being PRETTY disappointed with some so-called "investment winders."  

Effortlessly transform skeins of yarn into perfectly organized and tangle-free center-pull balls with this sleek yarn ball winder, designed for both efficiency and ease of use, making your knitting or crocheting experience a breeze.

Features:

• A unique internal gear system allows you to wind more yarn with fewer handle rotations.
• A long handle shape that makes it easy to turn and reduces fatigue. 
• Rubber legs to protect your table from scratches and allow for stable winding.
• Designed with a protective cover and inner lid to prevent yarn from becoming tangled and lint from entering while you wind.
• Optimized distance between the yarn guide and bobbin allows you to easily wind up to 3.5oz of yarn. 
• Superior design, manufactured and assembled in Japan to offer consistent functionality and a smooth winding feel.
