Brought on eBay for winding up my wool into balls and then into cake easy pull from the middle of the cake as I do a lot of knitting and crocheting plus weaving on my loom and is easy to wind up the loom shuttles from the cake.

Well made but unfortunately modern balls of wall are wound in such a way that the yarn wraps round the bottom of the ball so cannot be pulled easily when on the holder. The stem needs to be another 3" long for the larger balls although this wouldn't help with the yarn coming off easily. If you use a wool winder it would possibly work better but defeats the object. If I am missing something and using it wrongly I apologise but have tried all positions for the winder and really cannot get it to work as it should. I have two friends who also bought them and they have same problem.

This product is so easy to use, no more chasing balls of wool or getting in a tangle. I always take my wool from the middle and with this holder the wool sits where ever its placed..

Was expecting the holder to be larger. Have tried it on 100 grm ball and the yarn got stuck underneath so had to unwind it manually. I knit a lot of aran garments and I honestly think it is too small to take the 400 grm ball of yarn. It is well made but the Base could be larger and the spindle longer. Haven't tried it with 50grm ball as yet.

I guess this yarn holder would be fine with small balls of wool, cotton or crochet thread, I knit with 100gram balls of DK wool, this yarn holder needs to be much longer to hold them as a large ball of soft wool collapses or falls over and the yarn gets fast underneath preventing the spin. My granny kept her ball of wool in a large teapot with the end coming out of the spout.
