Walnut & Beech Yarn Skein Winder – 1.5m Wrap

This handmade wooden yarn skein winder combines a walnut handle with beech crossbars and produces an approximately 1.5 m wrap with each complete winding. Also known as a niddy noddy, it is used by hand spinners to turn newly spun yarn into organized skeins. Each tool is individually made in the Kravelli workshop in Georgia.

Use Profile

After spinning, yarn can be wrapped around the crossbars in a repeating pattern to form a skein.

The approximately 1.5 m full wrap gives the spinner a practical and repeatable winding length while organizing yarn for washing, setting, storage, or later use.
