Yarn Valet is a new company, with a line of yarny accessories that look great, are innovative, and super budget friendly to boot! So when they asked if I'd like to do a review of a couple of their products, I jumped at the chance - and even better, I get to share!
First, a little about this brand new company. Yarn Valet is a small family business, who are passionate about the yarn arts. The line was created to help better organize and store your yarn and deliver perfect tension while you knit and crochet. All Yarn Valet products are proudly made in the USA, and they are assembled and packaged in a sheltered workshop for individuals with intellectual disabilities.
I was excited to give the yarnballWinder and yarnBowl a try! In the past, I'd used knitting needles as winders, so I got the idea - but the Yarn Valet winder is so much easier to use! Yes, I have a big hand crank winder, but sometimes you want something small, quiet, and quick, something you can throw in your bag and go! The yarnballWinder fits the bill - and it's a whole lot more affordable than a big winder too! SO much.
Here's a video of the yarnballWinder in action - if you haven't done it before, winding yarn like this is indeed very relaxing!
The yarnBowl is fantastic too. Lightweight, with a rubbery grip on the bottom so it won't slide around. The flexible yarn opening, makes it easy to get the yarn in and out - but holds it there securely while you knit or crochet. And I just love the look of the scalloped edges! Nice and smooth, so nothing will snag, and it won't break if it falls off the table either. I wound the yarn inside with the yarnballWinder!
I really enjoy using my Yarn Valley yarnballWinder and yarnBowl! The winder is super handy - particularly for on the go. Even when it's just from the craft room to the living room couch! And the yarnBall does a great job keeping my yarn free of dog hair, carpet fuzz, and... whatever else the family drags in!
You can purchase the entire Yarn Valet line at YarnValet.com - be sure to check out the yarnDispenser, I've never seen anything like it! You can also follow Yarn Valet on Instagram and Facebook. And of course... let's do a giveaway! ♥ With TWO winners!

I think your giveaway products are awesome. I especially like the ease of the winder. It doesn't hurt that it is turquoise and white, as those are my favorite colors in the whole world. I know that I would love to be the proud winner of these products. Thanks for sponsoring such beautiful and useful tools for the home crafter.

I've been getting really sick of having to corral my yarn balls while working on a project, so this is a great giveaway! I'm also intrigued by the yarn winder, so it's a lovely combo.
