Yarn Bobbins

This set comes with a small ,medium, and large bobbin.

Large bobbins can hold over 70g of yarn before they start to approach the notch. Although you can wind these bobbins beyond the notch to hold more yarn, you would then lose the function of the notch until you use some of the yarn to uncover it again. The Large Bobbin is shown holding 50g. The Medium bobbin is shown holding 20 grams. The Small bobbins is shown holding 15g of yarn.

The notch on the large bobbins can fit bulky weight yarn and below, although bulky weight is a little snug when inserted. These bobbins are not recommended for any yarns thicker than bulky weight yarn. The small bobbins have a smaller notch and are not ideal for bulky weight yarns.

These bobbins are great for colorwork, intarsia knitting, smaller weaving looms, or for tidying up your mini skeins and leftover yarn. They're quicker and easier to use for hand-winding yarn than a nostepinne and keep your yarn neater as well. They make an easy and affordable alternative if you do not have a cake winder and yarn swift at home.

Winding Instructions:

thread the end of your yarn through the center hole, then wrap the yarn between the petals of the yarn bobbin, going directly across the middle. After wrapping it around several times, rotate the bobbin 90 degrees and wrap between the other petals, so that you're wrapping perpendicular to the first set of wraps. Continue in this manner, rotating and wrapping until you're done.

These yarn bobbins are available in assorted acrylic colors.
