What’s the Stitch About Knitting Machines?
Let's talk about knitting machines! What are they, how do they work, and does it count as hand crafting if you use one? Why choose a knitting machine vs knitting by hand?
Ply long skeins or chunky art yarn with the Schacht Bulky Bobbin in custom cherry finish. Take your spinning to the next level with an 8oz yarn capacity, double the amount of Schacht's regular and travel bobbins.
Please Note: These bobbins won't work unless you have already purchased the Plyer Flyer Package for either the Ladybug or Matchless and won't work on a standard Matchless or Ladybug.
The Bulky Bobbin is made of hard wood in two types, with a hand-rubbed Danish oil finish.
All bobbins made after February 2016 now come standard with a plastic core.
