Collection: Yarnbowls

When Jim first started making yarnbowls, it was to fill a request. A knit group that Brenda belongs too heard that Jim was a potter and said, "Jim can make a yarnbowl" to which he pondered, "What's a yarnbowl." Samples went back and forth and eventually the current bowl was designed. Jim is not a big fan of design by committee, but in this case the resulting bowl solves many issues. It's large enough for most yarns and yet the ball or cake will stay in the bowl because of the curved designed into the sides. The "J-hole" through which the yarn is pulled is large and smooth. The inside glaze is smooth so that delicate yarns (even mohair) will not snag and catch as the yarn move around the bowl. Even down to the details of placing cork "bumpers" on the bottom of the bowl to protect furniture. On top of all that, there was an expressed mandate to have a good looking yarnbowl. Mission accomplished.

Our yarnbowls come in raku, nekked raku, horsehair and feather carbon painted, some with mica and in our stoneware line called "Hobnob." All of the bowls are one-of-a-kind.
