What's a Yarn Bowl?

Knitting from balled yarn is a lot easier than knitting from a skein—a Yarn Bowl holds your ball of yarn so the yarn pulls smoothly as you knit—less tugging than knitting off the skein. They're also a lovely decorative bowl that can hold a small yarn project. Both our wooden Zen bowls or the lovely ceramic bowls from Amanda Pawley Studios work great—and make a perfect gift for the knitter who has (almost) everything! Just ask if you'd like us to ball your yarn before we ship it—yes, it will take longer and there is a small charge. A great budget option are the Lantern Moon Knit Boxes—now discontinued but we still have a few left!
