Wool Winder
Hi everyone
I have taken up spinning again but cannot find my wool winder. It is probably under that enormous pile of yarns etc in the loft but I just can't face starting to it yet. Has anyone any idea where I could get a wool winder. I am in Northern Ireland and have rung the few shops here that used to stock knitting machines but have not had any luck. I have checked eBay.co.uk and though they have some I never get the time to keep checking and have missed out on a couple! Anyone out there can help?? Andee In more of a tizzy than a spin at the moment! |

I suggest you get a friend to help you look in your loft...cheaper as well, wol winders are not all the cheap to buy.....Or wind your spinning onto a toilet roll or into a ball and put your balls in a plastic bucket and ply from there. I never use a wolwinder when I am spinning. I use mine when I am weaving. Good luck with finding one, either in a store of on your loft... Els -- I have added a trap for spammers......niet..... |
