Dogwood Nostepinne

10" nostepinne turned in dogwood. Note this nostepinne has a worm hole near the base that has been filled with resin, giving it extra character.

Nostepinnes are yarn winders, used to create a center-pull ball. Nostepinnes offer greater portability than a mechanical ball winder, and are a great choice for small amounts of yarn, or yarn which requires extra care such as lace-weight or art yarn.
