Wood Turned Bowls

IMG_5861If you follow us on Instagram you’ve probably seen Tito’s lovely wood turning work by now :) He’s working hard on producing a lovely set of at least 12 bowls in time for Festival Twist, and another 12 in time for the Kitchener Waterloo Festival.  Hopefully more, but that’s the goal!

After asking around a bit we’ve chosen not to include the slot for the yarn to pull through, some people wanted the freedom to use the bowls for other purposes, and some  prefer a centre pull ball and didn’t feel the slot was needed. We may change our minds in the future, but for now we’re going without.

Each bowl is hand stained by Tito to match one of our ombré yarns. I think he’s done a lovely job! If you can’t make it out to Twist or KW, these bowls will be available in our online store, which we will probably update at least once a month.

Finished with a coat of beeswax after sanding they feel like heaven, with a rich, earthy smoothness. Hopefully you’ll able to see and touch these goodies in person!

    These are gorgeous Tito!!

    My brother has been making ceramic yarn bowls this last year. They are really popular. I just wound up a couple of balls of my handspun for him to use for display. As soon as a knitter sees the yarn in the bowl they know exactly what it’s for. His has the cutout. Then there’s the option to use it or not to use it.
