Thank you! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-question-for-knitters#post-1271994 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 14:46:39 +0000 looch 1271994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You need both pieces, they come separately. The umbrella thing is where you put the unwound yarn, the plastic winder is how it gets turned into a ball. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gift-question-for-knitters#post-1271981 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 14:40:34 +0000 fussygal 1271981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My MIL casually mentioned that she wanted one of those contraptions to wind up her yarn. I picked her name for a gift this year and I'd love to get it for her. I know nothing about knitting and DH and I are completely lost.</p> <p>Could I buy just this: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Stanwood-Needlecraft-Wooden-Umbrella-Winder/dp/B000IG1I8O" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Stanwood-Needlecraft-Wooden-Umbrella-Winder/dp/B000IG1I8O</a></p> <p>Or does it also need to have this to work: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Stanwood-Needlecraft-YBW-B-Hand-Operated-4-Ounce/dp/B001L8DL4C/ref=pd_bxgy_ac_img_y" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Stanwood-Needlecraft-YBW-B-Hand-Operated-4-Ounce/dp/B001L8DL4C/ref=pd_bxgy_ac_img_y</a></p> <p>Are these two separate things? Ahhh, so confused! </p>
