Thank you so much for sharing this project. I am an avid crocheter and woodworker, so this is right up my alley. I will be making one of these this weekend.

Here it is in action- an old wooden Woolworth's bowl made in segments so short grain was a bit tricky. Had no dremel so did it by hand with a keyhole saw!

Did you post a picture? I somehow can't see one. Hope it worked out well!

Absolutely Brilliant. So much nicer than anything I've ever seen for sale.

I really like this idea. Even if you wasn't using it for yarn it's a beautiful fruit bowl!

I think I'll send this great idea to my boyfriend as a "hint hint wink wink" for my upcoming birthday. What a fantastic gift idea for knitters, and something that can be done in an afternoon. I LOVE IT!!

Send it to his best friend. This will spread the information and maybe he's happy for the idea himself! :D

If more women keep writing this I will install a fake email address from which I'll write your husbands and boyfriends as a "friend of yours" that lives somewhere away and knows what you wish for your birthday. :D

What a brilliant idea!!! I have that bowl, I'll have to make it into a yarn bowl for myself. Keep dreaming up ideas like this Dominik!

Thank you, I'll try. However, the basic idea for a yarn bowl is not from me. Good luck with the cutting!
