Wanting one of our bigger cup/hub bowls, but can't justify the investment?
This incredible yarn bowl set is "perfectly imperfect" priced to sell.

This XXXL pecan yarn bowl originated from a prime length of pecan which sat for over a year to encourage "black-line spalting" (see set #1212). A couple amazing spalted bowls emerged... THIS yarn bowl did not spalt, and is one of two bowls that developed bore damage (center front/back as shown). The first bowl sold quickly as it's rare we have perfectly imperfect bowls in this shape/size.

The odd shapes were painstakingly filled prior to final finishing. Most turners would throw a lovely piece like this on the scrap wood pile. I always encourage Bob to breath life back into a bowl like this, hoping for a unique and functional set to share as "perfectly imperfect" just like this. 

Front and center is Bob’s signature shooting star groove, graceful, silky and functional. The small raised base adds heft bowl base where needed for stability. A gentle east-west warp adds a graceful shape. The rounded bottom, open bowl shape is perfect for most yarn projects with room to spare for project and tools when your wip is set aside. Measurements are 12” diameter (top opening) x ” deep (od). Circumference is approx. 35” at the midpoint. Find the right size yarn bowl for you, and find out how we measure our yarn bowls using diameter vs. circumference here.
  
So versatile! Two medium balls of worsted, will roll nicely. Perfect for sock, mitten or scarf projects. Essential for lots of fine cotton or stash-busting smaller balls as shown, pulling from the top with the included glass cup/hub.

This bowl is really smooth and silky! A final coat of museum wax is added to resist fingerprints. Dimensions listed are approximate. Signed and numbered by the artist with species (Pecan); #1213. Dimensions listed are approximate. Truly one-of-a-kind, made by Bob and nature. Treat yourself!
