The device that holds yarn while you knit or crochet is called a yarn holder, yarn spinner, or yarn swift. Our Caydo Wooden Yarn Spinner Gemini is specifically designed to hold two balls of yarn simultaneously, making it perfect for colorwork and multi-strand projects.

What is the best way to hold yarn?

The best way to hold yarn depends on your crafting technique and personal preference. Using a wooden yarn spinner provides consistent tension and prevents tangling, especially for two-color work. The spinner keeps both yarns rotating smoothly and separate from each other.

How do you carry yarn?

To transport yarn projects, our compact wooden yarn spinners fit easily into project bags. The sturdy construction ensures your yarn stays organized during travel, and the natural wood material is lightweight yet durable. Simply secure your working yarn ends before packing.

What can I use as a yarn holder?

While DIY solutions like bowls or bags might work temporarily, they lack the spinning action needed for smooth feeding. Our purpose-designed wooden yarn spinners offer superior performance with smooth rotation, dual-yarn capacity, and stable wooden construction. Unlike makeshift options, our Gemini spinner specifically addresses the needs of crafters working with multiple colors.
