Umbrella swifts are great for holding your hanked yarn as you wind it. The can expand to just the size you need, and when you are done, you just close the umbrella style top and they take up very little room. I love a tool that puts itself away! The versatile handle on this metal swift will allow you to use it as winder or as an adjustable table clamp. Plus, the flexible, covered ribs make working with even the finest of threads fuss-free. Choose the regular-sized metal swift for skeins of up to 60” in circumference or the larger birchwood swift for skeins of up to 100”. Either way, the spokes will collapse with minimal effort for easy storage.

Are you asking for lots of yarnie goodness for the holidays? Maybe some of that fancy yarn that come in hanks and needs to be wound into balls. That can take forever! I have a swift and a yarn winder that I have, and I love them both! My swift comes apart for easy storage, I just pull it apart and stack the bits at the back of the table. The yarn winder can wind 10 oz of yarn! That’s a very large hank of yarn. I’ve yet to come across a hank that was too big. You can get the winder in a smaller size if you want, but this thing lasts forever, so why bother? Here are affiliate links for both the swift and winder that I use and love!
