6 Yarn Bowls For Knitting You Need To See Now!
Every knitter’s been there— you’re working on a project, and you tug a little on your yarn to pull a little more from the ball. But that one little tug was too much, and it rolls away, further and further from your reach! Sometimes it falls onto the floor, collecting more dust than you thought possible for a little ball of yarn. Or maybe it runs off and gets all tangled up, creating an annoying mess for you to untangle before you can keep knitting.
Enter the yarn bowl, your perfect solution. A small bowl with an opening (typically some sort of spiral) to pull your yarn through, keeping it still and contained as you work! No matter what you’re after- something a little rustic, modern, or something bright and colorful, there’s a yarn bowl for you. So let’s dive into the fun and discover six yarn bowls, one of which you’re bound to love!

1. Brighten Your Knitting with Some Color!
This bright yarn bowl is not only functional, but it’s also a work of art. It’s actually quite tall in comparison to some other yarn bowls. Because of this, it will be useful even for your largest balls of yarn. Some yarn bowls are a little too small, and the yarn can’t unwind comfortably. The bright blue and green design will also bring a pop of color to your knitting corner. It will be a decorative accent you can’t wait to show off!
2. Sleek Design for A Minimalist & Modern Look
While bright decor is a look many people like, this is the yarn bowl for you if you prefer something more sleek. This resin yarn bowl is smooth with a subtle grey marble design. It will keep your yarn moving smoothly without running off! Knitters who prefer a minimalist, more modern design will also find themselves in love with this yarn bowl. Because of its neutral tone and subtle design, it can be a great piece in any knitting or craft room.
3. Add Natural Beauty to Your Knitting Spot
If something a little more natural is your style, you’ll love this wooden yarn bowl. Because it has a stacked pine construction, each yarn bowl has a unique appearance. This is due to the difference in the grain- no two yarn bowls will be identical! This is also a good yarn bowl for if you just want something a little more simple. Light wood goes well with most decor. It will hold your yarn securely while showing it off, letting you admire it, making your work in progress a display of its own.
4. A Subtle Pop of Color for Your Knitting
The moment we saw this yarn bowl, we knew we had to include it in this list! It’s made of Sheesham wood, so it has enough weight to it that it’ll stay still as you work. A blue resin inlay adds a subtle pop of color that will look stunning on your desk. Because of the smooth, glossy finish, this yarn bowl will be completely snag-free! So, you won’t have to worry for a moment about your yarn getting caught in the spiral as you work. We love this bowl for knitters who want something simple, but with a little pop of color.
5. Smooth and Sturdy Wooden Charm
This camwood yarn bowl can only be described as classic, though we can see it being called timeless, too. The smooth multi-tone wood finish has a polished and yet natural look. We also love the flared top, which gives it an interesting and unique design we haven’t seen yet. It has a nice weight to it, which ensures it stays in place as you work. We love this beautiful blend of simple practicality and rustic charm!
6. Tangle-Free Knitting with a Modern Touch
This black wood yarn bowl will add a touch of drama to your knitting space. Maybe there’s a goth knitter out there who’d love this rich stain and elegant design? Also, something love to see in yarn bowls: it has options for holding multiple yarns! Next to the typical swirl lies three holes. Because of these, this yarn bowl is perfect for colorwork knitters holding multiple colors at once.
Enhance Your Knitting Experience with a Yarn Bowl!
A good yarn bowl is more than just a tool, it’s a piece that you love. While it’s a way to keep your knitting experience hassle-free, it’s also a way to add some style to your knitting space. It brings your personality even further into your craft, and adds a little joy every time you get to work with it. Whether you prefer wood or resin, modern or classic, and even single-strand versus multiple strands, there’s a yarn bowl somewhere that you’ll love.
So, it’s time to say goodbye to runaway yarn and welcome a better knitting experience with one of these stunning yarn bowls. Now that you have a gorgeous yarn bowl to keep your yarn dust and tangle-free, it’s time to find a pattern to knit!
