I have a skein that had a HORRIBLE yarn barf, so I’m winding it by hand and it’s taking a really long time, so I’m curious. I don’t have a job so small purchases feel big, so with that in mind, is an electric yarn winder worth it? or, alternatively, are the hand crank ones any faster/easier than winding by hand? I know that cakes visually look nicer than balls, but I’m looking more for efficiency than visual ^^;

I personally use a hand crank winder because the electric ones are a bit slow (IN MY OPINION). I think a yarn winder (in general) is worth it :) cakes stay organized better too

I don’t have an electric yarn winder, but I definetly want one; hand winding is a pain for me but my skeins are all out of whack!

Heyyyy! I’ve been winding cake yarns balls for a long time, and to make them easily pull able and neat is very easy, actually!
