New Swift



  

I bought a new swift for helping with winding skeins of yarn into balls.  I had a wire one that clamps to the bench or table and I have been fighting with it long enough.  It would fall off the desk or the little clamp that holds the umbrella bit up would fail and the yarn would slide down and loosen or fall off.  So I bought this Amish-style wooden swift.  It sits on the table, no clamps and spins nicely.  The pegs are adjusted to fit the size of the skein.   It all pulls apart for storage.  Just need to make a bad to hold it all.
