More info on the wool holders in the pics

These are wool holders, some would call them yarn holders, they are bakelite, and about 3.5 inches across and 4 inches high, one puts a ball of yarn in them and you can put the handle on your wrist or just set it down and let the yarn feed out the hole. They were made between 193o and 1950 and are bakelite, they range in price from 30-45$ depending on rarity.
I will be posting bee hive shaped wool holders, they also range in price, and then there will be thge spinning gadgets, check back and see what i can come up with.

I currently have three wheels here for sale, and five more on their way here. Affordable, great wheels. Besides here and my soon to be web site, my goods are now in a shop, Quirks of Art in the Hollywood district of Portland,Or.
If you are looking for a gift for a spinner or knitter that is something different, i have it, great orifice hooks, the cutest wpi / singles holders, knitting collectibles and more tools are on their way.
Just drop me a note, i will be adding more pics soon. This picture of globes in a box is actually a selection of wool holders that are bakelite from the 30's to 50's all british in origin. Fun.
