Bobbin Storage Solution



These photos show the bobbin rack that Diana's husband made for her as a Christmas present. It actually took the coronavirus lockdown for him to get around to making it in April, but no problem, she has it now!

Diana designed the rack to fit on a shelf (shelf space is very scarce due to an overabundant stash of yarn). It is made of 1” thick pine 11” x 12” and holds 90 ¼” dowels 1 ¼” apart. Photo A shows the board drilled with 90 holes. Photo B is Joe inserting, gluing, and tapping the dowels in with a rubber mallet. Photo C shows the completed rack, and D is the rack loaded with bobbins.

 

Diana no longer has a basket of bobbins all tangled up, and she can easily see if she has a bobbin already loaded with a yarn she needs.
