Product Description
This Medium size yarn swift is made of solid wood and finished by extra fine sanding (no toxic varnish fume). The Medium size can hold skeins up to 6-ft in circumference. It spins smoothly and makes yarn winding a fun job. The clamp-on base allows it to be firmly fixed at the edges of tables, chairs, benches, or any other convenient locations. It fits edges up to 1 3/4 Inch thick. The craftsmanship on this yarn swift is superior. We avoid wood pieces with scars or blemishes so that our yarn swifts are less vulnerable to breakage and more appealing aesthetically. The ends of metal tying wires are hidden into holes and will never hurt your hands or the yarn.

Great product for the price! I was a little concerned that it might not be large enough for some of the skeins I bought, but it worked for all of them - from my worsted Malabrigo yarns to the fine strains from Knit Picks. The mechanism winds smoothly every time. I'm very happy with it.

I have seen many a Swift and this is by far the most affordable. The craftsmanship reminds me of the days when people stood behind their work and would issue refunds if their work were found wanting. I would recomend this piece to anyone wanting a strong, hardworking swift.

After trying my local yarn shop's swift and ball winder, I knew I had to save up for such a setup. It's okay to wind by hand, but the swift (with a ball winder) is absolutely wonderful.This one was much less expensive than elsewhere but it is good quality. I don't use it heavily, so I don't know how it would hold up with daily use, but it's certainly adequate for me!Updated: 2011/09/01I'm still using this swift! I'm still not a heavy user, but it's holding up well, and the cost was well worth it, IMO. (I bought it at a time when it was hard to justify.)
