I do wind yarn and I do talk to yarn - sometimes not so nicely but now ... A first class, big honking ball winder from Strauch. After my husband spent too many nights watching me wind customers yarns on my itty bitty ball winder, with frequent frustration and lots of *talking to the yarn* he said I must have a new one. And did I disagree? Oh heavens no. All I did was research the one I wanted. I decided on the Strauch for several reasons. See below...

Oh, and by the way, I got it at Copper Moose. Excellent service and super fast. Ordered on Sunday - here on Tuesday.
So my friends, anyone need any yarn wound? It is a free service here at The Yarn Grove. If you want your yarn wound into a cake, just let me know in the comments section... Now I will talk to yarn nicely ...

That is a very impressive ball winder! (and Husband)
I put my 10 year old to work winding my yarn. For somereason, he enjoys midlessly turning the handle on my small Japanse ball winder.
What kind of swift do you use?
The swift I have is an umbrella metal one from Japan and I love it. I used to be a *human swift* for my mom years ago. What a nice boy to help you like that!
When it comes to the right tools for handling yarn, men do seem to get it! Enjoy the new ball winder...anything that decreases talking to the yarn is totally called for!
