Features

  • CENTER-PULL YARN BALL, our yarn winder creates yarn balls with the string that can be pull from the center, making your knitting sessions convenient and neat.
  • ULTRA HEAVY DUTY, our yarn winder is constructed from 3-millimeter-thick steel with rust-resistant powder coating to ensure it will stay in place so you can organize your yarns quickly and safely.
  • REINFORCED NYLON GEAR, our specific gears are designed to be both durable and flexible. Tough enough to handle high-speed winding, soft enough to ensure the gear noise is at an absolute minimum.
  • 10 OUNCE CAPACITY, our winder can handle more than 2 times the yarn a conventional winder can handle, which can reduce your workload by half.
  • TOOL-LESS SETUP, trying to find a wrench to set up to wind is annoying, so we designed our winder to be set up without any hassle, so you can wind faster.

    • A yarn addict’s dream....
Fellow yarn addicts, rejoice! I’ve been crocheting for over 40 years. I’ve used all kinds of yarn, and was always taught to roll my skeins / hanks into balls to keep them contained and relatively knot-free. A ball winder didn’t seem like something I really needed, as I already had two hands! Then again, I was frustrated because yarn balls have a tendency to skitter around like crazy and I always unwind a good amount before crocheting so that my tension isn’t goofy. I’ve used baskets (they snag the fiber), tupperware and other specialty products (which never fed the yarn smoothly) to hold my yarn, but I’ve never found the right solution. [Please note that I do not have a swift, because that is what husbands were made for.] But after all these years, and finding that I have a huge addiction to yarn (justified because yarn is mostly cheaper than drugs, and I won’t go to jail over my stash!) I decided to invest in a ball winder. I did a LOT of research, and wanted to make sure the device wouldn’t crap out on me after a few uses. I received an electric winder as a gift long ago, but it turned out to be a big pain in the backside to use. Not to mention, it made itty bitty 2 oz cakes, and I didn’t like constantly cutting and re-joining my yarn. Initially I wanted a ball winder to save space, as circular storage (i.e. yarn balls) take up a LOT of room. I use scrap leftovers to make blankets for the local animal rescue, and have many multicolored “magic balls” made from previous projects. Boy-howdy, do I have a LOT of yarn! I loved the idea of stacking my yarn as well. The winder came quickly, and was well packaged. It’s very sturdy and you can tell it’s not a plastic toy or something that’s going to fall apart quickly. It wasn’t difficult to set up either! I clamped it onto my computer desk and within 20 minutes I was ready to rock & roll. I grabbed one of my many pop-up hampers full of yarn balls, launched a video on my computer and went to making cakes like a deranged baker. Maybe because it’s a new toy, but the ball winder was actually kind of fun. It’s a mindless job to do while you’re watching TV or on the phone. The device moved smoothly and didn’t tangle the yarn unless I got stupid. Sure, it’s got a little noise to it, but it is quieter than my electric winder and didn’t bother my movie. Oh, and static? Just grab a new or used dryer sheet and hold it around the yarn as it’s feeding. Works great, and you can do the same for your clothes and hair too! Voila – no more shocking family and pets! Also, if you’re the queen of frogging, like me, I can tell you that this is awesome for taking apart a borked project. The best part? Time savings, which was a surprise. Normally it takes at least 15 minutes to ball up a 6 oz. skein of acrylic yarn. That’s assuming that there are no breaks, knots, the ball shoots out of my hands and I have to chase it across the room, or my cat decides it’s playtime. With this winder, it takes less than 3 minutes to cake a 6 oz skein. It’s beautifully done and quickly completed. I’m currently caking every scrap of yarn in the house and so far have found that my stash takes up at least 1/3 less space than before and is MUCH neater. Hubby is happy, I’m delighted, cat is a little confused. I’m using the heck out of this thing, and it seems to be taking the abuse. Conclusion: This ball winder is sturdy and well crafted. Easy set up. It makes beautiful cakes with minimal (read: no) snagging or tangling. The cakes save space, and are easier to store. It takes a crocheting / knitting chore and makes it much more manageable. Well worth the additional money for a quality product, and like others here, my only complaint is that I didn’t buy this thing years ago. If you crochet, knit, weave, spin, teach art, or have tons of yarn around, this is invaluable!! ... show more

Review Image by Amidanshi Amidanshi
[Photo: Cake of 608-yard Lily Sugar'n Cream Big Ball 100% cotton yarn in Emerald Isle, wound in under 10 minutes.] I haven’t been knitting long, but long enough to know that winding a 400yd skein of yarn by hand is as close to the definition of “tedious” as anything I’ve ever come across. I usually buy yarn in skeins (not hanks), and while skeins technically don't have to be wound into balls or cakes like hanks do, I find doing so reduces the chance of getting things tangled beyond repair. There were many different winders that all had very good reviews, though I suspect the joy of switching to a winder after doing it manually probably makes many reviewers overvalue the quality of the winder itself. I wanted a model that I could use for even the largest amounts of yarn I've ever bought—the Lily Sugar ’n Cream Big Ball (608yd) shown in the picture—yet still work well for winding up remnants and small skeins. I was ready to select a similar model from Royal when I found this one. Many, many reviews for several different winders made note of the noise produced by winders with metal gears (something like an eggbeater, I would imagine, or even louder). I often work late at night when the rest of the world is asleep, so metal gears were not ideal. When I came across this Stanwood model with nylon gears, I decided to try it. When I unpacked the box, I found a high-quality winder that was easy to assemble using only a regular Phillips screwdriver to attach the outer arm. I bolted it down to the table and tried it out with one of my pitifully hand-rolled balls that I had been working from, and I found that it was a little tight and difficult to turn the crank. That was easily fixed by loosening a screw at the bottom of the core, according to the included instruction sheet. When I did that, it worked beautifully. All my old balls were quickly turned into cakes. Then I started another skein of 608yd cotton yarn, which I was able to wind in under 10 minutes. Yes, five minutes compared to well over an hour by hand! I have found that it's often helpful to wind a cake twice. The first time I do so, the tension tends to vary as I move the yarn from the store-bought skein to the winder, especially toward the end of the skein where it likes to tangle. The second time I wind it, it winds up evenly and beautifully since it's coming from the center of the cake I wound in the first stage. Simply holding the yarn taught (not tight) between the fingers of my left hand and cranking with my right, it takes no time at all to get a cake that's beautiful enough for any wedding. ;-) I've wound various yarns in DK (3), worsted (4), bulky (5), and super bulky (6) weights, made of 100% wool, 100% acrylic, 100% cotton, and wool/acrylic blends. I haven't had any problems with any of them. Working from them couldn't be easier. When you've finished winding, find some way of securing the outer end (tuck it under another strand, wrap it with something, etc) before you remove it, then HOLD THE END in the center while pulling the whole cake up off the core. If you don't hold the center, it tends to fall down through and (maybe) come out the bottom instead. You'll probably have a small amount of yarn at the beginning that sort of "sticks out" the top, but provided you pull from the center, you'll go through that in no time and it will be nice and uniform thereafter. The cakes store neatly, don't roll around everywhere, and are a breeze to work from. I believe this winder will last for a very long time, and there's nothing about it I dislike. It does its job quickly, quietly, and easily. ... show more

    • Well worth the money
I originally bought a cheaper yarn ball winder. That was a mistake. The gears constantly slipped and the fly arm would move all over the place because it came loose at the wingnut constantly. It damaged and scratched my craft table, and it made a terrible racket as I was trying to wind my yarn. I returned it and bought this Stanwood yarn ball winder. It has been great to work with. It winds the yarn smoothly. The gears do not slip. And it’s nice and quiet. I do make sure to re-tighten the wing nut every sixth or seventh ball of yarn I cake but sometimes it doesn’t need it and sometimes it is just a bit loose. This yarn ball winder doesn’t scratch my craft table by coming loose and there’s a little rubber O-ring on the flyer that keeps it from doing any damage to my craft table. To me this was well worth the extra money. It saves me time and frustration. I always cake my yarn before starting to crochet a project because I cannot stand to get it into a piece of work and then having to stop to untangle a big clump of yarn barf. The Stanwood yarn ball winder is awesome and I should’ve started with it to begin with. ... show more
