Mammoth, magnificent and nice and heavy; this XXX Large Yarn Bowl is turned in a unique and functional shape from reclaimed Drake Elm. The raised neck top measures 9-1/4" (top rim) flaring to 12-1/2" (midpoint) and a generous 7"deep (measurements in diameter). Find out more about measuring yarn bowls using diameter vs. circumference here.

With so much room, your larger wips are more portable and stash-busting is more organized. Some yarners might find the graceful j-groove more decorative than functional in a piece this size (read more here) but when this yarn bowl is unpacked for work two large balls of yarn will roll nicely. I prefer to pull several smaller balls from the top. Shown here with a mandala project of five balls of yarn, there is room to spare lots of extras.

This specimen of local Drake Elm was crafted over an eight-month period. Nice and rotund; this bowl has a gentle warp for added character with a nice big pool of our sapphire inspire sparkle inlay front and center. The grains and wood tones are beautiful and accented on the back side with a patch of treasured spalting.

​Over fourteen coats of finish/hand-buffing bring out the rich character of the wood tones and brilliant shine. A final coat of imported museum wax was added to resist fingerprints and stains. Dimensions listed are approximate. One-of-a-kind, signed and numbered; #1115 with "Cherry" (species) engraved as well. A splurge for most; our collectors consider a piece like this yarning decor at it's best.
