Wooden Yarn Umbrella Swift

Product Description

• Clamp: Secures the swift to the edge of a table, chair, or counter.
• Central rod: The main support pole around which the "umbrella" arms are connected.
• Adjustable arms: A set of hinged arms that expand and collapse, similar to an umbrella. These arms spread to accommodate different skein sizes.
• Umbrella clamp: A mechanism that slides up the central rod to lock the swift's arms in place, holding the yarn securely. 

1. Mount the swift: Attach the swift's clamp to a sturdy surface like a table or counter.
2. Untwist the skein: Remove the label from your yarn hank. Carefully open the twisted loop of yarn into a large circle.
3. Place the yarn: Position the opened skein around the swift's closed arms.
4. Expand the arms: Loosen the screw on the umbrella clamp and slide it up until the yarn is held taut. Tighten the screw to secure the position.
5. Snip the ties: Cut and remove any smaller tie strings that are holding the hank together.
6. Find the yarn end: Locate one of the loose ends of the yarn.
7. Begin winding: Pull the yarn and guide it onto a ball winder (or wind it into a ball by hand). As you pull, the swift will spin, neatly releasing the yarn. 

• Prevents tangles: The swift holds the yarn securely and evenly, preventing it from twisting and tangling into a messy pile.
• Saves time: When paired with a ball winder, it can significantly reduce the time and effort needed to prepare yarn for a project.
• Frees your hands: The tool holds the yarn for you, freeing both hands for the winding process.
• Compact storage: The umbrella design allows the swift to collapse into a small, portable size for easy storage when not in use.
