Stanwood Needlecraft Tabletop Amish Style Wooden Yarn Swift 2.5-6 feet

This is a great product for the money.

Love love love this! Easy to store and easy to put together and use.

Pros: Simple to assemble, color is warm and even. Natural wood. Simple to store. More affordable than an umbrella swift.

I wish I had known about this amazing wonderful simple knitting tool a long time ago! I knit with lace weight yarns and I finally purchased this as it took so much time to wind 1500 yards of lace weight yarn from the back of a chair. It is easy to set up and easy to use. I put it on the dining room table , sit and wind the yarn into balls. It is not necessary to have a ball winder as this Amish style swift turns very smoothly as I hand wind the yarn into balls . It also takes up very little space to store. What a marvelous invention! So far I have used it for Jamieson and Smith cobweb, Jamieson and Smith lace weight, madelinetosh lace weight and Harrisville shetland. It works so smoothly and easily.

I appreciate the design and compact storage of this yarn winder. The pegs are noted with the measurement of the Skein to take the guess work out of set up! Easy to set up and put away in original box. Easy to use.

I went with the Amish version for a couple of reasons. 1) it breaks down into a skinny box that I can store anywhere, 2) theres no clamp like the umbrella kind ..my work table has a thick edge and those clamps never open wide enough and 3) Ive seen the umbrella model topple over too often to want to have one. This Amish model works great, very smooth and in just a few minutes I was able to wind the skein into a cake all by myself ..no more begging someone to hold it for me.

This swift is great, making winding yarn fast and easy. I wound three hanks of yarn in less than 20 minutes. I enjoyed using this easy to use swift.

Love this swift! It is smooth to use and super simple to assemble and take down. Great price as well.

I bought this because the screw on my umbrella swift was stripped and wouldnt stay up. This style is so much easier to use, and more compact for storage!

So pleased with this product.
