Frequently Asked Questions: Portable Yarn Holder

What can I use as a yarn holder?

Commercial yarn holders offer the most reliable solution for serious crafters. While some crafters use DIY options like plastic containers with holes or paper towel holders, these lack the smooth rotation and stability of a purpose-built yarn spinner. A quality wooden yarn holder provides consistent tension and prevents the frustration of tangled or collapsed yarn cakes.

How do you carry unused yarn?

Unused yarn is best stored on its original holder to maintain shape and prevent tangling. For partially used yarn cakes, you can place them in a zippered project bag with the Caydo spinner disassembled for transport. For longer trips, securing the cake with a yarn saver clip or bobby pin prevents unwinding during transit.

Can you use a paper towel holder as a yarn holder?

While paper towel holders might work temporarily, they lack the stability of a Caydo Wooden Yarn Spinner's wider base and don't accommodate multiple yarn cakes. Paper towel holders also typically don't provide the smooth rotation needed for even tension, and their single dowel design doesn't allow for multi-color projects that require several yarn cakes.

What are the best containers to store yarn?

For active projects, a dedicated yarn spinner provides the best access while keeping yarn clean and tangle-free. For long-term storage, clear plastic containers with secure lids protect against dust and pests while still allowing visibility of your collection. Yarn cakes stored on compact spinning holders maintain their shape better than those stored loosely in bags or bins.
