It Wasn't Made to be a Yarn Bowl. . . BUT it is One Now!


My knitting sister went on a mission trip to Nicaragua and I watched her dog while she was out of the country. As a thank you gift she bought me a hand carved bowl by a local Nicaraguan artisan. The second I saw it, I realized what I would use it for! For those of you who are not knitters (or crocheters, etc.) A yarn bowl is used to hold your yarn ball so that when you pull on the yarn it doesn't fly off of your table and skitter across the floor. The artist may have put the slots in the bowl for artistic flare, but they are just what a knitter wants in a yarn bowl.
