New Yarn Winder

I was in the  market for a new yarn winder.  Some ladies, on one of my facebook knitting groups had suggested the Laci's.  I read a lot of reviews.  They weren't good.

Another lady recommended the Stanwood.  I was looking for a larger one.  I read the reviews on this and it got excellent reviews.  So, I bought it.

I've wound yarn and I love it.  No noise.  I love the way the caked yarn comes out.  I was using a Royal, but, it was making a lot of noise.

I highly recommend it, if you're in the market for a new one.  The Stanwood Company has replacement parts, too.

I absolutely love this pattern and the yarn I used.  Yarn is called Seascape.  It's a hand-dyed yarn by  https://www.etsy.com/shop/DellasCrochetCottage/sold?page=3&ltid=1024812941 She can also be found on Facebook.  She has her own group named The Cottage.  Some of her yarns are one of a kind, sometimes you have to pre-order, too.  She doesn't have all the yarns she dyes in her Etsy shop .  She posts pictures of her yarns on her group or, she can also be found on the group Knitting 3.  Her name is Adella Colvin and she is a very nice person. Pattern costs $5.76 USD. http://www.ravelry.com/projects/InLuvWithYarn/red-robin-shawl
