I just love my new Large Cherry yarn bowl! (#611) It is just gorgeous and so beautifully crafted. It's a true work of art! 

This bowl is just what I've been hoping you would have one day. I have a beautiful Kauri wood XX large bowl for my more intricate projects. I wanted a smaller one-piece bowl to keep my simple dishcloth projects in for when I didn't want to have to think about what I was knitting. I have already started my first dishcloth in it!
I love the Cherry wood, my favorite!

Thank you for making such a beautiful, yet useful tool! I appreciated the wonderful way my package arrived with pretty paper inside! I also appreciated the cute little tape measure that was enclosed. You can't beat the hands on customer service!

I finally got my very own XL Heirloom Yarn Bowl, Black Line Spalted Oak, and I could not be happier. ...so smooth and very shiny with the delicate curved grove for my yarn. I often find myself gazing at this fine work of art and wonder, if this tree talked.

Customer service is top notch, shipping is beyond safe and secure, lovingly wrapped, definitely my favorite collectible hand turned yarn bowl... and I have a few.  A big Thank You to Bob and Paula 💞🐌🌳

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is my second yarn bowl from Heckathorn and it is beautiful as well as functional. I wanted something slightly bigger than my XL bowl and tried to add measurements based on my first bowl. Because shapes vary, Paula was so kind and helpful and made a recommendation based on my specifications. She was spot on! Bob has such a talent and with this pretty piece, I feel good about leaving my work handy.

WOW and GORGEOUS were the first words that came out of my mouth. The bowl was more than I even imagined. Much bigger than I expected. A shiny bowling bowl was a true description. I love looking at it while knitting and it will be on display when not in use. I now understand comments about people collecting these...I will keep my eye on the website for my next bowl! A true work of art.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nothing Compares!
I recently received my second gorgeous cherry wood Heckathorn yarn bowl and couldn't be more pleased. Just like my first one, the artistry and craftsmanship are extraordinary. I have been to countless yarn stores across the country and a few abroad and have searched online as well, and there is nothing that even comes close. A Heckathorn bowl is truly unique and a work of art that looks beautiful on my coffee table. I like to use large bowls sometimes so my project can fit inside the bowl when I'm not working on it and this one is perfect for the throw I am making. If you ever want to find a unique and beautiful gift for someone (or yourself!) that will become a treasured heirloom, check out Heckathorn yarn bowls.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Such artistry and workmanship! I’ve looked at yarn bowls on Etsy for a long time and have been disappointed by the number of sellers who simply import lesser quality products. THIS piece, however, is a work of an true artisan. Gorgeous wood grain (and an artist’s eye for how to optimize its beauty), elegant and imminently practical design. I love the deep, straight sides and the Fibonacci spiral cut. The finish is super smooth. Just perfect all around. Beautiful to look at and a joy to use. Thank you!

PictureXXL Cedar Ceremonial Bowl or Yarn Bowl,Boxwood & Walnut Inlay Band and Sky Blue Sparkle Inlay, #1049
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Just designing this bowl was a challenge in itself. The execution is nearly perfect. It has smooth, graceful curves accented by the harder, tightly rendered bead below the band of blue, and the two, sharper beads bordering the wood inlay at the rim. The contrasts of the wood tones in the Cedar body, the wood inlay, and the blue sparkle band is exceptional. Wow ...

I am an engineer by nature and KNOW what went into just Designing, not to mention actually executing, this work of ART. It took very sharp tools, and VERY EXPERIENCED HANDS, just to shape it. Bob might make something similar someday, but an artist will never duplicate a work of art like this. It is an organic creation from the skilled hands of an artist. Every work is unique

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is my third year bowl from Bob Heckathorn. The workmanship is impeccable and is a piece of art. I love the "large" size because it it perfect for a skein of yarn that you are working with in a project. I have two this size and one extra large. The XL sits on my coffee table with some yarn balls in it.
​–Marcia M., Aug. 29, 2019
PictureCedar Tool Plate #192
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This Cedar tool tray bowl is, in my opinion, one of the most daily useful products Bob makes. The size and depth of this bowl are optimized for the tools that people who Knit and Crochet use on a regular basis.

This bowl holds ALL of my tools for any project that I can foresee in my yarn use, both knitting and crochet. It is large enough for 7" double pointed knitting needles, a large handful of Addi Swing Maxi crochet hooks, knitting stitch-holders, place markers, tape measure, cable needles, scissors, darning needles, row counter, and needle gauge, with room to spare. It allows you to see, at a glance, whether you have what you need for your project - and holds it all with ease. And it is BEAUTIFUL too!

The Cedar wood chosen for this bowl makes it quite light, which is a pleasant surprise. It has been polished to a glass smooth finish, inside and out, that brings out the wood grain beautifully. Bob's care in finishing is obvious in pictures, but truly exceptional in hand.

I also acquired a beautiful Spalted Oak bowl for yarn ball control when I purchased this Tool Tray. I now have a wish list of other examples of Bob's woodwork for holding an entire project's materials, multi-color use, and small ball storage (and maybe one or two just because the wood and craftsmanship are beautiful).
​–David W., May 17, 2019
PictureSpalted Oak Vessel #201
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This bowl was chosen for a top pull yarn bowl that is both beautiful and functional. I work with yarn in both center pull balls, and round, hand wound balls - both will work nicely in a bowl of this size. The shape and finish of this bowl are perfect for keeping yarn flowing smoothly.  

The grain and spalting of this bowl are SPECTACULAR! The organic shapes flow like water, and enhances the natural wood grain. It is simply a STUNNING example of a natural material and natural processes used to create functional ART. Bob's workmanship is exceptional, and he works WITH natural materials and processes to create BEAUTIFUL AND FUNCTIONAL ART!

​–Robin W., March 21, 2019

Beautifully and expertly crafted. Large enough to accommodate a big sweater project. The inlay was seamless. The finish was silky smooth. It’s as much a work of art as it is a useful knitting tool.

​I am really enjoying the functionality of it! The size is just right for my current projects and the ease at which the yarn comes through the beautifully finished groove is amazing. My husband admires the workmanship, too, and has already asked me what wood I'd like my next one made of! Thank you for making such a useful, yet beautiful, tool! I am so proud to own one of these lovely bowls!

Today I got this beautiful yarn bowl, #1083. I love it! The yarn slot is nicely rounded allowing the yarn to pull out very smoothly, unlike other bowls I’ve seen that have a sharp edge that causes the yarn to drag. That feature alone is worth the price. I also like that I can fit both the ball of yarn and the project in the bowl. So glad I found this online, you do beautiful work.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
​Received my bowls and they are FABULOUS! Aside from the absolute beauty, they are over-the-top functional! My yarn bowl is the Cadillac of the jumbo sized bowls, as I work with larger skeins, and this one fits the bill perfectly. But the real joy is my matching Cup Hub.  Not only does the Cup Hub beautifully match my big bowl, it serves to keep all my knitting tools in 1 convenient place (so, so helpful!), AND, it also serves as a yarn separator when I work with 2 skeins in my bowl! And if I may add, it just makes me FEEL GOOD to look at my bowls while I'm working on a project. 

The wood on these items is gorgeous, Bob's workmanship is unbelievable, and I'm a sucker for the sparkle inlay! These bowls are heirloom quality and will be in my family for generations. Splurge on yourself, I guarantee you...Heckathorn bowls are worth every penny and you will be as happy as I am!

Any prolific knitter would love this. My sister thought it a vase until she read the note inside..She was ecstatic...It came on time and she loves it with the different shades of wood and light enough so she can see it...

How can you not like a handcrafted item that took over 7 months to make. Beautiful quality and American craftsmanship at its finest. Giving as a Christmas gift and I am sure she will love it. This will be her second knitting bowl and she loves the first one and the shooting star pattern! Many kudos to the craftsmen/craftswomen who made this bowl.

This is an unbelievably beautiful piece of work - even the photographs don't do it justice. It's also useful, which is a bonus, but it is so lovely I have it on display in my living room. I can't recommend this artisan's work enough if you are looking for a useful piece that you will be proud to show off and share.

This is my second cherry Heckathorn yarn bowl. It is just as beautiful and functional as the medium one I purchased first.

​When I am not using them, the medium bowl sits nicely inside this XXL one, or I can set them out separately as decorative pieces.

This is my second Bob Heckathorn yarn bowl, and I'm amazed by the craftsmanship and beauty of this vessel. The size is significantly larger than the size Large bowl, and will be perfect for using in tandem with my first bowl.

​I'm also happy to see that the size and shape are conducive to holding spinning tools or fibers near my wheel. I have a feeling that I'm going to be spoiled for any other craftsman! Lightning fast shipping again, too.
