Do you know what I use I use a paper towel holder
Hi, @littlemissunshine7846!! That's clever! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
I use a paper towel holder but if the yarn is pulled from the center of the skein, sometimes it gets stuck inside. I like your spinners! I think I need one.
Me too! 😊 But it isn’t ideal. Just used in a pinch. I’ve always thought I was a center pull girl, but see the appeal of not doing that of late, so I’m changing lanes I think! 😂
Love this review❤
I’ve been looking into buying one. Now I know what to expect and how to fix it. Love how you go into detail!
I’ve always pulled from the outside, it’s just how I learned . And I use a paper towel holder that my husband rigged behind my chair sideways (so it comes straight out instead of up and down) and it works great for me until it gets low then I have to remove it to finish .
Excellent review video, I was thinking about getting a yarn holder spinner, this is so helpful!!! Thank you!
Oh I am so glad, @prairiefarmgirl! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
@prairiefarmgirl. Same here. I swear TH-cam knows what I’m thinking! 🫣
SUBSCRIBED!!!!!!🎉🎉🎉 I bought a double wooden lazy susan thingy and it would get stuck like what was the point darnit it ruin my mood for sure so I went to ali express and ordered the plastic wool jeanie game changer spins perfectly 👌 so smooth BUT it would tip, not enough clearance for the yarn and it would clack when I got a going 😂 so hubby clamp it to the table but sometimes my yarn would get stuck on the clamp. ( back to square one) Then hubby melted some sort of metal on the bottom of the plastic to add weight for it not to tip over. Is my daily driver 😅 BUT don't work for larger skeens if yarn. Literally 20 min ago the double magnetic wood one arrived 😅!!!! Now I just need the magnets you kindly did research on, and I should be golden. Thank you so much 🎉
I wrapped the bottom with tape to stop the yarn wrapping around inner spindle. The first spinner you reviewed.
That's a great idea, @pollyj4jam157! 👍 Thanks!! 🌺🌼🌸
How and where did you tape? I have one I don't use because of the yarn wrapping around the spindle in the gap.
@@JillLowman-l4fI would also like a tip on this!
OK, so THIS is tremendous! Thank you!
Oh I am so glad it was helpful to you, @thehadster7043! Thank you!! 🌼🌸🌼
Great review! Thanks for all your work figuring this out. ❤
Oh I am so glad you enjoyed it, @cindyh112!! Thank you! 🌷🌺🌷
Krista, awesome review!!!! Thank you so much for taking the time to research on the magnets & coming up with a solution to the problem:) Great big thumbs up to you 👍
Oh thank you so much, @donnanolen120! 🌺🌻🌸
OMG thanks for finding the solution for super large skeins! You are amazing. Thanks so much!
Oh I am so glad you liked it, @LindaKNe! Thanks!🌻🌺🌼
Linda, if you're using larger skeins, definitely use the wooden Artowell ones she linked. But look around, they make a bigger size. I've got a double-header from them that has a bigger side that holds a Super Saver skein with tons of room.
For the single size, look at the product description of the one she listed in the description; there is a "plus size"/"standard size" option that you can select between. I thought this would be equal to the bigger size of the double-header I have, although looking at it JUST now, I see measurements on there that suggests the single version is just slightly smaller, which is really odd (given that they sell replacement spindles in both sizes, you'd think they'd be the same). Maybe that info is slightly inaccurate. Either way, both should hold bigger skeins with more clearance.
@@bluesonicstreak7317 thanks so much. Love this thing!
Wow, you did all the hard work for us!!!!!!!!!!! You are a genius Krista, thank you for all your time and money you spent to help us. Very nice of you. And the best thing about it is everything is right at Amazon. So simple.
Oh I am so glad you liked it, @meandmymacaw2735! Thanks!🌻🌺🌼
Wow Christa! Such a good job you did with this review. I know which one I am going to ask for for Christmas! Thank you for all your work and expense and for the great information! You never disappoint! Hugs!
Agree! Excellent review!!
Hi, Leslie!! SO nice to see you! How is it going in Florida? Send me an update on Whatsapp! I miss you! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
Oh thank you so much, @LisaT_! 🌺🌻🌸
Thank you so much for figuring out the yarn spinner dilema! I have been looking at them, and wanted to get one for my daughter and myself. That magnet strength was my concern, but you know how it is in the rabbit hole! It slipped my mind, but I’ve now ordered the spinners AND N52’s! You’re so smart! Thank you! Thank you! 🥰
Oh I am so glad, @kathleenkarsten5739! You are both going to LOVE them! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
Wow!! Great review and tips! Buying some magnets for my double yarn holder spinner😊
Hi, @terijwh!! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
Awesome video! I don’t like the non-magnetic ones because no matter how well they spin they still get stuck. I love my Wool Jeanie. I just wish they’d make a bigger one for bigger yarn. I don’t get the knocking from my Wool Jeanie. You’re Wool Jeanie isn’t a Wool Jeanie. It’s a great copy though.
Hi, @JBaby_9783!! Absolutely! It's a knock-off for sure - but thought it was worth it to show the stronger magnet and dimensions. ;) I'm glad you like yours! LOTS of people do. Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
Thank you so much for this fabulous review. I’m off to find a N52.
Oh I am so glad, @shirleyspring4905! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
About one month ago, I bought the single spinner, almost bought the double. Wish I did now. Thanks for your review. It helped me decide which one to buy next.
Oh I am so glad, @debbiemiksch7276! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
This video is very helpful. I have all of them in a cart trying to decide which one to get. Thank you so much
Oh I am so glad, @negrieruiz8630! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
As someone who HATES center pulling (I either have extremely bad luck with yarn barf, or something about my style increases the propensity of center-pull skeins to constantly re-tangle, but 1+ hour of detangling for every hour of knitting/crocheting has been my experience), I was recently in the market for one of these. I used to just nestle the skein on a bunched-up hoodie so that it wouldn't roll or flip. I got good with practice at pulling just hard enough to unwind without sending the skein flying. That still gets tough with cake yarn when it gets down to a tiny tube.
I watched your previous video on these as well as a few others reviewing the "Wool Jeanie." I had initially been going to buy the "lazy Susan" style, but I kept seeing people mentioning the yarn tangling in the base. So I went for the "pendulum" style instead, even though I didn't initially like the look of the yarn swinging around. I got one of those wooden Artowell/Flykey ones, the double-headed one that is two different sizes. I'm in Canada, but I can see from your links that the same one exists on the American Amazon. If you're an Amazon affiliate, you may want to add the link to that one separately - you show a double-headed one at the end of the video, but it looks like the arms are the same size. You want the one where they are DIFFERENT sizes.
Reason being, that brand makes a "jumbo" size, which I believe is equivalent to the bigger side. (For the single version, select "plus size" in the listing description.) The jumbo/plus size will comfortably hold a skein of Super Saver or a Caron One Pound with ample clearance in all directions. I assume it should also fit the Pound of Love from Lion Brand, but I haven't tested it. I haven't had the Super Saver I currently have loaded on the jumbo side fall off even with some hard shaking, so maybe the magnet is upgraded on that one and you got old stock with the ones you have, idk. If not, your magnet solution is GREAT.
(I also don't know why they don't just make a double-headed one that is jumbo on both sides...I will have to get a single jumbo one coming up because I have plans for a blanket that is a one-pound style of yarn and the RH Granny square yarn and I was hoping to fit them both easily on the double header. Oh well.)
I love this thing to death already and have bought more spindles for it so I can have all my WIPs loaded and ready to swap at a moment's notice. Admittedly I haven't gotten to the end of any skeins yet, so maybe a unique problem will arise at the end. But even then, I think it will be worth getting. I was using a Caron cake on it the other day and it was unwinding so smoothly that I never had to look over at the cake once. Game changer.
Oh YES, @bluesonicstreak7317! I should get one of those... I am sure it will be bombdiggity! Thank you so much! 🌺🌻🌸
Loved your video!! Will be looking out for N52 batteries that don’t cost $22.00. But I’ll find them and if I do I will link it. Your video was so great. I caked all my yarn and I hate putting it in a bowl on the floor - this looks like a great alternative!!!😊
Hi Beverly, not batteries, but magnets. Want to make sure you get the right one :)
Oh I am so glad you enjoyed it, @beverlyb5144!! If you find N52 Magnets is a smaller pack - please send me the link! Thank you! 🌷🌺🌷
Krista, thanks so much for this review. I'm off to Ali Express to order N52 magnets! I especially appreciate your last comment about knowing which yarns require caking & which don't. I tried using a spindle on a 10 oz skein of LionBrand Ice Cream Big Scoop. BIG mistake 😢. As soon as I removed the paper band the yarn decided that it wants to look like one of those onion-shaped domes on top of Russian Cathedrals! I wish there were a way to send you a pic just so you could laugh as hard as I did 😂
And because now it's shorter than the spindle, it *does* get caught at the top as it spins around. My solution to that was to pull out several feet at a time & crochet as much as I could B4 pulling out more yarn. I ended up taking it off the spindle & spinning up a couple of cakes from the middle, then adding post-its to number them in usage order & remind me to pull from the OUTside & attach the inner center strand to the outside of the previous cake. Hopefully that will keep the color progression somewhat even, though it's not a true self-striping yarn.🤞🤞🤞 At least I'll be able to finish my project with a only modicum of unacceptable adjectives 😳. Thanks again for a most informative post. You're a star. 🌟💖
I know, riiiiight, @jacintavattuone4442!?? Totally! But then those ones that stay perky - easy street! But caking before for the lazy onions - YES! Thank you! 🌸🌼🌺
Excellent video!!!!! Thanks so much ❤
Oh I am so glad you enjoyed it, @Wokfreed!! Thank you! 🌷🌺🌷
Hi Christa! Got one cuz of your program a few weeks ago! Got the magnetic one and I love it for small to medium size balls. Gigantic balls tip over so I am on the lookout for super large ones. Have now shared it with our knit and crochet group here in Sun City Roseville in California which has about 25 to 30 people. Several folks looked it up right away. This was a fun discovery. Thanks. Have fun today. Linda
That's awesome, @LindaKNe! Thank you!! 🌸👍🌺
Yes i love them. You're a crochet instructor ? Supplies are necessary and i love everything about you. You're a professional at I'm sure everything you do perfection. After Christmas, New Year's i will definitely be a member in the meantime I'm here. Thank you for ALL you do. ❤❤❤❤❤
Awe! Thank you so much, @dorothyquarles1982! You made my day! 🌺🌷🌺
Thanks so much for your review! I can't wait to buy mine. Love all of your videos!😊
Oh I am so glad you liked it, @SallyC317! Thanks!🌻🌺🌼
Wow! thank you so much. I got the yarn thingy from aliexpress and my one complaint was the magnet. N52 it is!
That's awesome, @dianecummins4168! Love AliExpress. Thank you!! 🌸👍🌺
The research you have done is awesome, Christa!!
Checked out your Amazon link for the magnets...did you have to buy 30?
Hi, @terijwh!! Apparently! I couldn't find a smaller pack that was N52 and the right size. If you find any, please send me a link! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
Great idea, I use these all the time but have the issues of the spindles falling off. I had thought about getting other magnets but wasn't sure of strength. Ty, ty, ty. Or c cred from ur link💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Oh I am so glad, @purpdlerose! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
I love the video, it makes me want one (magnetic wooden one), but not sure how helpful it would actually be for me.
Has anyone used the magnetic one with Lily Sugar 'N Cream cones? I would really like to know if that will work well with each other.
Hi, @beccagarvin4079!! I think it would work great!
You might want to put the cone on upside down - small opening sitting on the spindle? Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
My husband made me one back ... oh, 40 yrs ago. I used it for a long time. I was working on a thread bedspread.. . I like the idea of the counter-sink style. I've bought a bowl and like it more. I tend to make even my skeins, cakes, now. I always hated the knot that forms when the skein is ending. It doesn't take that long to make a cake of yarn. For the wooden ones I'd use that gripper material so it didn't slide on the table.
Sounds fabulous, @kathleenhensley5951! Thanks! 🌺🌷🌸
Thank you so much for taking your time and effort to see what works and how to make it better. Greatly appreciate it. 😊
Oh I am so glad you enjoyed it, @monaramsey7431!! Thank you! 🌷🌺🌷
Good review. I will be getting the double and hardcore magnets. I’m wondering if gluing the less powerful larger magnet would work?
That's a great idea, @lindaarchinal9008! 👍 Especially if they are strong enough to hold a few lbs! Thanks!! 🌺🌼🌸
I took a piece of styrafoam thats about 15 inches square that came in my medicine delivery box, i stuck 4 chopsticks in it and then i wind my yarn onto old paper towel tubes and it spins on the chopstick really nice, i can sit the styrofoam on the floor next to where i am sitting and do multi color projects without the yarn getting tangled...I could see a craft room having the sideways wall hanging paper towel holders with yarn coming from them working beautifully.
The yarn spindles work best with caked yarn. I find that non caked yarn works best in a yarn bowl or some other non spinning yarn holder. I actually take my non caked yarms, and I turn them into cakes only because it's easier to pull from the inner or the outer.
Hi there thank you for sharing video. I have a yarn holder myself. I too don't like the pull center ball and rewind the cake thing. The yarn holder works better. I have the yarn Jeanie one. I love it.
Oh I am so glad, @titacrafts6643! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
Great review and thorough! I now know which one to purchase.
Oh I am so glad it was helpful to you, @hershey275! Thank you!! 🌼🌸🌼
Hi Christa, you're a life saver, thankyou so much. Yay for N52 magnetics. Hugs dear lady.
Hi, @aussiesandy!! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼

That was extremely helpful. Thank you for doing all that research!
Great review!! Thank you so much!!!❤
Oh I am so glad you liked it, @patriciascruggs7101! Thanks!🌻🌺🌼
Awesome research, Krista! I have a wooden one but I don't use it unless I'm using cotton cones of yarn (and then, Zoom! it goes fast). But I'd probably use the one you chose a lot more often since it doesn't tip easily. I may just have to invest in one. Thank you again for purchasing all the types and sharing your findings! ❤
Be careful removing magnets from stack. I always wear leather gloves in case the magnet pops back on the stack. It prevents my skin from getting pinched which is incredibly painful.
I don’t use fancy yarn and I’m stubborn, I just find the center pull! Some bladders are a nightmare though and I do see the logic in your circumstance.
Thank you Christa! This info has come at the perfect time. I just purchased yarn spinners for my self and my daughter. I can now update future ones for gifts!
You could also just E6000 glue a larger stronger magnet.
That's a great idea, @ABJILL033! 👍 Thanks!! 🌺🌼🌸
This was such a fantastic video, I had to subscribe! 😊 I also have the magnetic spool and love it. My main issue with it was that my yarn would sometimes get a little bit stuck where it wraps around the bottom of the ball. My fix to this was to make a little cone out of card stock with a hole at the top of the cone large enough to fit the dowel. So, I first slide the cone down the dowel to the base, and then I slide on the ball. The cone gives it a little more clearance on the bottom so the yarn doesn't get pinned beneath the weight of the ball. Thanks so much for the magnet hacks!
Is there a link for the coasters? BTW great review.
Hi, @DominiqueMarieJolie!! YES! Absolutely: amzn.to/3zwr5FY Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
@SecreteYarnery you can glue the magnets together with E6000 that way they won't slide around
Thank you 😊 xx
Hi, @leesaboocrochet!! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼

That’s for a bunch of bananas my dear 🙄🙄 it’s called a banana tree
Well… many thanks for this extensive review… I had considered the mgnetic one but thought it would keep falling off… the magnet trick would do the trick! I do have a standard one purchased on ebay, handmade, whih is wonderful. All in all, I do not use it that much…
Oh I am so glad it was helpful to you, @Makapida! My other tips and tricks are here: th-cam.com/play/PLpolLUf9SLHiHBmAl9xKxOZfsIZuuv5-n.html Thank you!! 🌼🌸🌼
Some tips about those holders. If you are adding the magnet, use some strong glue, such as Gorilla Glue, and glue that magnet into place, even tho it is stuck on, just be safe and glue that puppy. I have both types of yarn spinners and honestly, they are more of a pain than a help to me. They spin so easily that the yarn continues unwinding faster than I crochet, leaving a puddle of yarn tangled around the base of the spindle base type or a puddle under the hanging type.
I feel yarn bowls are far superior to the hanging/spindle holders. I tested by using a plastic mixing bowl with rubberized base. Worked perfectly and I could use different bowls for different sizes of yarn balls. Tried my ceramic pottery bowls, and again perfect. Have since graduated to real yarn bowls that I found on Etsy. I have 3 favorites from Etsy that I absolutely love and I suggest shopping there and supporting a small business.
Hi, @MonaMoon80!! Thanks so much for sharing! 🌻🌺🌼
I used to be a centre puller - so much so that I can wind a centre pull ball by hand without using a winder but I would always be frustrated by my yarn ending up either over twisted or totally untwisted as I worked. Then one day I saw a video which was my eureka moment. It explained the problem of centre pull and then gave a very visual demonstration. They took a narrow strip of paper and rolled it up to simulate the ball of yarn and then took hold of the centre and pulled straight up. That strip of paper emerged as a tight spiral, showing how it was the centre pull causing my twist problems. I then got a yarn genie and have never looked back! I absolutely recommend them, also doing the paper experiment to see it for yourself.
Hi, @kaiiskz!! Thanks so much for sharing! That's a good one!! 🌻🌺🌼
Great review. Your yarn Jeanie looks totally different from mine. Mine bends over much further and has about 3cm clearance between the spindles and bottom. I can easily get 200g on mine. Luckily mine have never knocked or came away from the magnet. How bizarre! I love the look of the wooden ones
Hi, @sylviawitcheecomrie37!! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
Oh my goodness! What a game changer. I purchased one after watching this video and I am so thrilled. I never realized how much time and effort went into yarn control! Thanks for the great reviews!
Oh I am so glad it was helpful to you, @barbaravarian4086! Thank you!! 🌼🌸🌼
Thank you for the review! I first bought the hanging holder. It works great but won't hold a large skein. I scoured Amazon looking for one taller but to no avail. So, I ordered a double standing holder. It works great too and will hold a full skein. However, not all yarns are wound the same it seems. Some will come off easily while others want to be stubborn (mostly the jumbo sizes) I think the ones with the metal rods would work much better. Wish I had known about them before buying these but now I know and may get one anyway!!
Hi, @roseydiva1183!! That's great to know! Let us know how it goes! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
IME, doing center pull leads to twisted yarn. That’s why I prefer pulling from outside of cake.
That's a good point, @hilarycohen1470! 👍 Thanks!! 🌺🌼🌸
Amazing video!!!
Oh I am so glad you enjoyed it, @toffeesmom0194!! Thank you! 🌷🌺🌷
I bought a paper towel holder to use for yarn, also. However, I use it to hold coned weaving yarns or crochet thread. It is easier to keep my yarn and thread balls from collapsing and tangling if they are wound around a tube. One time, I didn't have a tube handy, so I took a piece of thicker paper and wrapped it around a pencil. I slid the wrapped pencil in the middle of the ball/cake, while sliding the cake off the ball winder. Then, I just slid the pencil out. And then I started saving paper towel, toilet paper, and coned yarn tubes again! 😆
Oh that is so clever, @audreydeneui192! Thank you so much 🌺🌻🌸
During your research did you come access yarn cozies? On a knitting channel the knitter used them while traveling and knitting or crocheting on the go. It’s for inner pull. It’s basically a sheath that goes over your yarn ball. Still can get yarn barf but it seems to hold the yarn open in the center. So I’ve been trying them out and asking around to see what anyone else has found or experienced. Would appreciate any input anyone has.
That's a great question, @noradresser1919! 👍 I am interested to hear as well! Thanks!! 🌺🌼🌸
If I use the link and put it in my Amazon cart, then close Amazon to get back to You Tube will you get credit if I go back later in the Amazon app and finish my order?
Oh thank you so much, @normabinkley6111! Yes - I think Amazon gives you a few hours of grace. That is SO KIND of you! Thank you! 🌺🌻🌸

Oh I am so glad, @judyc4899! Thank you!! 🌸🌼🌺
Hey Christa, you said you had to work from the outside because your yarn was attached to your work... Why didn't you just cut the wire and then attach the center pull side back to your work? Or was it not a single color you were using?
Hi, @katrienvh4289!! Yes - it was one of those fancy colorway cakes... needed the yarn in color order, and was too lazy to join... lol Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
Great review! I just got my magnetic hanger today. I am wondering if anybody else has found that it spins backwards after pulling on it and then it is tangled around the spinner and arm?
Hi, @PattyYouel!! Awesome! Congratulations! It can spin in reverse in the beginning - you will eventually forget to yank on the yarn and it will flow freely as you need per stitch. Keep on using it and let me know how you like it! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼
I use a small plastic appx 1ft highx 6” diameter (wicker design) intended to b a garbage very cute works super 💯👍
That's awesome, @susanteichroeb9088! Thank you!! 🌸👍🌺

Hi I have a wooden yarn holder my Daughter gifted me and a plastic wool jeannie again a gift The wooden holder so far has worked fine for me ( its a smaller shorter one ) Looking forward still to test my wool jeannie which survived our move
Gosh you set yourself a task with the magnet hunt !!
Hi, @katherinesgrannysquares!! Thanks so much for sharing! 🌻🌺🌼
I just don't understand why would someone even need a yarn holder. that's one of the most useless products for people who crochet or knit. just pull from the center and put your yarn next to you and it won't move.
Thanks for your feedback, @me9981! 🌴🍨✨
Thanks for doing this investigating into spinners. I've never had a need for one. I use a ceramic yarn bowl.
Sounds fabulous, @saltyseaair! Thanks! 🌺🌷🌸
Toilet paper rolls - wind your yarn onto the used toilet paper roll & then you can switch yarn balls any time you want & only need one spindle. I have a wooden spindle like the one shown here & have done lots of colorwork with just the one spindle - it works great! No DIY spindles needed & you are repurposing the toilet paper rolls!
Hi, @MJToo!! Thanks so much for sharing! That's a good one! 🌻🌺🌼
That extra magnet idea is brilliant! Thank you for doing all the research for us. I have another tip for those magnetic yarn holders. I found the base of the spindle too narrow for some of my yarn, so I made the base wider by unscrewing the base and putting an old CD in between the base and the dowel and then screwing it up again. It fit nicely, and it made the base wider. (Then I replaced it with two CDs back to back so that the reflective side was out, just to make it look prettier).
Oh that is SO CLEVER, @kerravonsen2810! I'll have to pass that one along! GREAT tip! Thank you so much 🌺🌻🌸
My yarn jeannie does not hold a big ball of yarn wonder y. I need that double one for sure love it!! My jeannie makes my big skeins fall off bc they r too heavy.
Hi, @Value1lady!! Try adding a N52 magnet to it - it will work a treat! Thank you! 🌻🌺🌼

@@SecretYarnery thank you and you're welcome! 😁
It’s old
Then why not have it pull from the center so that the yarn doesn't get caught while it's spinning
