i've just received one of these i'm
0:03
going to show you everything you get in
0:05
the box how to put it together really
0:07
easy how to use it and what I thought of
0:10
it plus how quickly I went from chaos
0:17
joy this is what I received through the
0:19
post it's a nice compact box it's been
0:22
really well packaged um but don't worry
0:24
there isn't loads and loads of assembly
0:26
once you get it out so the first thing
0:29
you'll come across is your manual it's
0:32
really small because you actually don't
0:33
need to know very much it's very
0:35
straightforward but there is a QR code
0:37
so you can scan that and get more
0:39
information so the first thing out is
0:41
going to be the screwdriver and three
0:43
little screws there's the power lead
0:46
which you'll notice is USB so you do
0:48
need USB power supply and there's the uh
0:52
plastic attachment that your yarn cake
0:54
is going to be formed on
0:57
and the tensioner so the next thing I'm
1:00
going to get out is the tensioner that
1:01
you feed your yarn through to make sure
1:03
you get a beautiful yarn
1:05
cake and there we go that's
1:08
that and the actual yarn
1:12
winder and that's everything so the yarn
1:15
winder is quite compact um it's not
1:19
going to take up loads of space in your
1:20
home and you can see there on the bottom
1:23
is the bit that attaches it to your
1:27
so let's do that assembly and get
1:30
started so the first thing I'm going to
1:33
do is attach the tensioner so if you
1:36
look at the yarn winder on one end
1:37
you've got your power supply where it
1:39
plugs in and the other end is a little
1:41
slot and you just feed it in okay so I'm
1:45
going to show you again so you can see
1:46
the top you feed it in and you can see
1:49
that little hole you can see it's
1:51
arrived pop your screw in use the little
1:54
screwdriver provided and secure it in
1:58
place now if you remember there were
2:00
three little screws in that bag you only
2:01
need one of them the others are spares
2:03
just in case you take this apart and
2:05
lose them you will notice how long it's
2:08
taking me this screw goes in a long way
2:10
it isn't going to drop out it's very
2:14
winder so the others are just in case
2:18
you take it apart and lose
2:20
one yeah just keep winding there we go
2:24
now we just need to attach the plastic
2:27
bit on the top which just pushes in and
2:30
turns slightly clockwise and you're
2:32
ready to go you just use the wing nut to
2:34
fasten it to your table or your desk and
2:37
then let's put your yarn through so you
2:40
feed it through the hole at the bottom
2:43
pop it behind that spring hook it over
2:47
top through underneath the other spring
2:50
and then literally just wind it round a
2:53
couple of times and then secure it in
2:56
those little grooves at the top and
2:57
you're ready to go so obviously I've
2:59
connected it to the power supply i'm
3:01
just going to turn the little knob and
3:04
as you turn the knob further the device
3:07
speeds up it's that simple so you can
3:10
turn it a little way and just get
3:12
slowly or like me you can turn it up to
3:16
the max and just get your yarn cake made
3:19
now I've sped the film up here i'm sure
3:21
you realized so we're not sitting here
3:24
all day watching it but I did want to
3:26
show you the whole wind um and it
3:29
actually doesn't take long anyway so as
3:31
I promised you at the end I'll show you
3:33
how much I did and how long it took me i
3:36
have loved this device and I have spent
3:38
a whole afternoon doing loads of yarn
3:40
i've got to be honest you saw how easy
3:43
it is to thread up how easy it is to
3:45
operate if by chance there's a knot and
3:48
it stops it can't feed it through the
3:50
device will just stop and then you just
3:52
turn the knob off and sort it out and
3:57
satisfying so if you're enjoying this
3:59
and you're finding it helpful to see
4:01
whether you want one please give it a
4:02
thumbs up below so it spreads to more
4:05
and I hope you're enjoying seeing that
4:07
cake forming is a really nice even
4:10
tension i've never had a winder i've
4:12
just had to use my husband's arms which
4:15
obviously he's really pleased I've got
4:16
this and uh so I'm not comparing it to
4:19
lots of others but I will say a whole
4:22
afternoon using it no problem it just
4:25
kept going and doing one after another
4:26
after another and it used lots of
4:28
different yarns from very fine up to a
4:30
chunky i haven't used a massive yarn in
4:33
there but I have gone very fine to
4:34
chunky and they've worked beautifully
4:36
includ including one actually with
4:38
little bobbles in it now you can see
4:40
I've got a little bit of um a rave mess
4:42
there so I'll just unravel it you'll
4:46
notice I just turn the device off so it
4:48
didn't keep trying to pull it through
4:50
and then I'll turn it on slowly cuz
4:51
there's only a little bit of yarn left
4:53
and it'll just finish off now I choose
4:56
to just tuck that under an edge there
5:00
and then you just pull it off the
5:03
device and you've got your yarn cake
5:07
go you can see how compact that is now
5:10
I've been using mine and absolutely love
5:14
them so it's very satisfying so you can
5:17
see I'd got this pile of yarn all
5:20
different bits some small some big some
5:22
a bit more naughty than others and I
5:24
just wound them to form these beautiful
5:27
cakes and it took me a whole 15 minutes
5:32
that's all the setting it up that's
5:34
putting them through getting them off
5:37
and all made so you can see it's super
5:39
quick and I do recommend this yarn
5:41
winder so I hope this has helped you
