I was super excited several years ago when I was given a wood umbrella swift and a hand crank ball winder. It made it so much easier to purchase yarn because I could leave it in hank form until I was ready to knit or crochet it, and that is better for the yarn because there is no stress on the fibers when it is in the hank. When a new yarn shop in town opened two years ago...A Good Yarn Sarasota...I was amazed to see that there was an electric ball winder. It was so much faster and wound a really nice "cake" of yarn. I thought that electric winders were very expensive and therefore would only be found in full service shops. So...how delightful to see that Boye now has an affordable electric ball winder!
What is even better, is that you have a chance to win one of these at www.allfreecrochet.com!
Wish me luck.
