Scheepjes Umbrella Yarn Swift Birch/Rosewood with base Dia. 74cm

With a Scheepjes Beechwood/Rosewood Yarn swift with Foot, there's no more winding yarn between your hands. Quickly and easily you can wind up yarn in hank. If you use a cross wrenchwool winder, you have a handy yarn holder so you can easily convert a hank into a yarn skein.

The Scheepjes Yarn swift is made of a beautiful combination of light beech wood and dark brown rose wood. As a finishing touch, the wood has been varnished so that the yarn swift has a nice glossy finish. The varnish makes it easy to get the yarn on and off the spinner, while preserving the beautiful structure and colour of the wood.

It measures 54 cm in height including the foot. It folds out like an umbrella. Then tighten the screw wing to keep the wings stretched. Now the yarn swift is ready for use. In its outermost position, the yarn swift measures 74 cm in diameter. The wings are fitted with metal screws and black nylon cords. This version stands on a matching wooden base. This makes it easy to use the yarn swift.

Dutch yarn and hobby company Scheepjes aims to provide inspiration to all professional knitters and crocheters. With a yarn swift, winding up hanks and making yarn skeins couldn't be easier.

How to use the Scheepjes footed yarn swift

The advantage of this yarn swift model is that it can stand on its own with its built-in wooden foot. The foot ensures good stability, so you don't have to worry about the appliance wobbling when you use it. You can therefore keep your hands completely free while you are winding yarn skeins.

If you want to use the Scheepjes yarn swift, start by placing it on a flat surface - such as a table or desk. Then unfold your arms slightly so that you can place the unwrapped/stretched hank around the yarn swift. Unwind the arms until the yarn is firmly attached, so that it doesn't tangle or slip when wound into skeins.

Be sure to secure the position of the yarn swift. This is done by screwing on the screw wing, which is at the top of the wooden shaft of the yarn swift just below the arms. Ta da, now you are ready to win some really nice yarn skeins with your Scheepjes wooden foot yarn swift.

It is possible to wind yarn skeins directly from the yarn swift, however, if you want the best results, you can use the yarn swift in combination with a wool winder - sold separately.
