Corking (Knitting Spool) Set
These are handmade by my husband - we bought some dowelling and he cut it to size, drilled them with his lathe, added the knobs/staples, sanded and finished them
(boy, that makes it sound easy! - it wasn't)
making "strings" for a pair of mittens! |
They won't break like the plastic ones!
And if you click here, you'll find a great handmade bamboo loom hook that will last as well!
