KnitPro natural wooden yarn dispenser is ideal to use if you don't want to chase your ball of yarn around the floor and it was constantly tangled. This keeps your thread under control as you knit, and you can keep your wip in there too. The crochet yarn holder has a scroll saw to hold your yarn. The wooden yarn dispenser is well made from durable ash-tree. It will last longer than a bamboo holder, as it is made of a stronger material. It prevents some accidental tubules from a low height without any ill effects. Every knitter/crocheter should have this tactile yarn spindle which is the perfect reason to start a new knitting Project.
