KnitPro presents their beautifully handcrafted ball winder made from natural birch.
The timber ball winder winds balls up to 450gms of fingering weight yarn at a time. The anti-friction bearing on the spool side allows for free rotation and the use of fine quality bearing provides super smooth winding of the yarn.
Anti-skid rubber pads on the bottom prevent the winder from sliding and scratching. The winder can also be clamped to the table. Replacement bands are available separately.
(For best results, use with KnitPro Swift)
