Wind skeins into neat, coreless balls by yourself. Clamp this hand-crank winder to your table, turn the handle and start your project without the tangle.
Wind skeins into neat, coreless yarn balls quickly by hand with a clamp-on winder
- tangled hand-wound yarn
- slow manual ball winding
- yarn that needs two people to hold a skein
- uneven or hard-to-use balls
Wind skeins into neat balls, without a helper
Tired of holding a skein while you wind it by hand, only to get a lumpy ball that snags? Clamp this winder to your table, turn the crank, and get a tidy, coreless ball ready for your next project.
Everything a skein needs, in one small winder
- Clamp it, walk away
The integral clamp opens up to 1.4 in and locks with a red knob, so the winder stays put while you work. Both hands stay free for the yarn.
- Turn once, wind evenly
The geared base and red-grip handle turn the spindle smoothly. You build an even, coreless ball instead of a lumpy one.
- Guide it, don't chase it
The spring-steel yarn guide keeps the strand in line, and the slot on the spindle top holds the start of the yarn. The spindle also has a loose/tight setting.
From skein to ball in a few turns
- 1Seat the spindle
Align the notches on the spindle with the geared base and turn clockwise to secure.
- 2Clamp to the table
Fit the clamp on the table edge (up to 1.4 in) and turn the red knob until tight.
- 3Lock the guide
Rotate the yarn guide upward and pull it out to lock it in working position.
- 4Feed the yarn
Pass the yarn through the guide and secure it in the spindle notch. Support the skein on a swift.
- 5Turn and lift off
Turn the handle clockwise to wind. Withdraw the finished ball from the underside.

Questions and answers
The clamp opens up to 1.4 in and tightens with the red knob, no tools needed. Measure your table edge first. A very thick edge will not fit.
Tightened properly, the clamp holds the winder in place while you turn. Seat the spindle by aligning the notches and turning clockwise, then lock the yarn guide in its working position.
Hand-winding needs a helper or a chair back and tends to give loose, lumpy balls. Here the crank does the turning and the guide holds the line, so you wind alone and get a tidier ball.
You support the skein on a swift, and the winder pulls from it. Check your swift holds the skein freely so it unrolls as you turn.
Yes. It winds knitting and crochet yarn into coreless balls the same way.
If you buy skeins regularly, it replaces the helper and the time spent untangling. One small tool, used on every skein you wind, spreads its cost thin.
