Winding yarns from cones, big heavy cones... Tuesday 30 August 2011 4:55:26 pm Hiya! By a lucky mistake I found an excellent way of winding yarn from cones: place cone on appropriate surface (table, chair, floor) and use a hook in the ceiling somewhere above it to lead the yarn to the winder or swift! I happened to stand under my "christmas lamp hook" when a friend and I were winding some stuff for her, me holding the yarn up above the edge of the cone and her winding. It was a natural step to move it up there, and it worked like a song! Many of my cones are massive mill ends of 6 pounds and more, so they stay put whatever you try to do to them. Petra
