These are being handcrafted now and will ship no later than August 31, 2026. Order today to be among the first to get yours. I'll keep you updated every step of the way, and as always, I'm just a message away if you have any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA yarn swift that locks in exactly where you need it — every time.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Yarn Swift - Fully Adjustable gives you complete control over your skein length. Each arm features a sliding block with a thumbscrew — slide it to where you want it, tighten the thumbscrew by hand, and it stays exactly there until you're ready to change it. One arm is marked at the 1, 1.5, and 2-yard positions so you can dial in a perfect, consistent skein in seconds. But the sliders aren't limited to those marks — position them anywhere along the arm and lock them there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSlightly larger than the standard swift, it's built for spinners and weavers who want precision without compromise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Ways to Use It:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSkeining from a bobbin or center-pull ball:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slide each block to one of the marked positions — 1, 1.5, or 2 yards — and tighten the thumbscrew. Wind your yarn around the arms, counting revolutions. Every wrap is a known, fixed length, so the math is simple: wraps × skein setting = total yards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWinding into a ball or cake:\u003c\/strong\u003e Place your existing skein on the swift, then slide each block outward until it meets the skein snugly. Tighten the thumbscrew to hold that position. The swift now holds your skein at the correct tension for smooth, even winding onto a ball winder — no collapsing, no tangling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Fully adjustable sliders on every arm — slide the block to any position, tighten the thumbscrew by hand to lock; loosen to adjust when a different skein size is needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ One arm marked at 1, 1.5, and 2-yard positions for instant, repeatable skein lengths\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Slightly larger build for greater versatility with longer skeins\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Rubber feet on the base keep the swift firmly in place on any surface while you wind — no slipping, no chasing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Square arms fit precisely into precision-cut square holes in the carousel for a solid, wobble-free connection at every setting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Every corner finished with a 45° chamfer for a smooth, refined feel in hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Included plastic washer lets you tune your winding experience — use it for reduced friction and faster, free-spinning winding, or remove it when maximum tension control is what the yarn demands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Fully breaks down for compact storage — arms and carousel disassemble quickly and pack neatly into the included bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Includes a winding handle for smooth, comfortable skein winding by hand\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e✓ Proudly handcrafted in America\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThree Marked Lengths.

Spinners can wind finished bobbins directly onto the swift to create measured skeins, or use it in reverse to feed yarn from a skein onto a ball winder. Weavers can use it to measure precise yarn lengths before winding onto a \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/boat-shuttles\" title=\"Shop Boat Shuttles\"\u003eboat shuttle\u003c\/a\u003e bobbin, or to portion out yarn for smaller warp sections before sitting down at the loom.

Wind 50 wraps on the 2-yard setting and you have exactly 100 yards. No scale, no estimating — just an accurate count every time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach Yarn Swift - ships complete and ready to use: base with rubber feet, carousel, 4 arms with fully adjustable sliders, plastic washer, 1\/4\" handle, four 3\/8\" uprights, and a carry bag to keep everything together when you're not at the bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare \u0026amp; Storage:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWipe clean with a dry cloth after use.
