    Default Brilliant homemade yarn swift!

    I found a turning Susan at an estate sale today -- I am definitely going to make one of these:

    Thanks for sharing

    If I ever find need for one, now I know how to make it cheap. Most yarn I buy is in skeins. I have put yarn over the back of a wooden kitchen chair, the few I have gotten in hanks.
