Infinity Hearts Wool Winder for Yarn Blue/White 18x9x13,5cm

If you have bought yarn to be wound up, i.e. come in so-called balls, you need a cross winder. This way you can turn the thread into a yarn bobbin, which you can knit with more easily. You may also have trebled up a knitting project and need to wind the yarn back into a ball. The yarn cross winder does this faster than you can do it by hand. Yarn keys that are won up by a cross wrench machine are also called a (yarn) cake. They have the added advantage that you can pull the yarn off both from the middle and from the outside of the yarn key, whichever you prefer.

The spanner measures 14 cm (length), 8.5 cm (width) and 14 cm (height). It is made of plastic, which is dark blue and white. The handle itself is made of metal and has a dark blue plastic handle. The yarn arm with the eye is also made of metal, as is the clamp with the screw that holds the cross wrench.

It is easy to assemble and use. Be careful not to tighten the clamp too tightly on the edge of the table. The cross wrench can be clamped on table edges up to 5 cm thick. You get a cross wrench that is easy to use and inexpensive.

The package includes an instruction manual in English. Please note that it does not belong to this model. This means that a special case for the spindle is NOT included.

Fitting your Infinity Hearts Cross Wrench in Blue/White

In the package you will find the cross wrench itself and the clamp for mounting on a table. The clamp is inserted into the hole just below the handle. Then you can clamp the cross wrench to the table with the screw wing by turning the screw counterclockwise. If you want to remove the device, turn the screw clockwise. Now you are ready to win yarn on the cross wrench.

How to use the cross wrench

You take out your yarn and take one end of the yarn. It is now wrapped around the yarn eye on the metal rod. Next, wind the yarn a few times clockwise around the spindle and fit the yarn firmly onto the two small slots or hooks in the swivel at the bottom of the spindle (see picture 2). Hold the yarn from the yarn eye slightly taut while turning the handle clockwise on the crossing device itself with your other hand. Gently turn the handle until the yarn loop has started properly.
