For some patterns and yarns, it's important to wind your yarn into two-equally sized balls before you start knitting - especially when you're knitting toe-up socks. Here's my tried-and-true method for doing that. My ball winder and swift are from Strauch Fiber Equipment Company. You can learn more about the company here: http://www.strauchfiber.com/ They also have a YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/Strauchfiber The Woolery is the retail outlet for Strauch Fiber Equipment Company. You can find my ball winder here: http://www.woolery.com/store/pc/-Strauch-Jumbo-Ball-Winder-p1602.htm?idaffiliate=59#.VK2l3HtZZvo And my swift here: http://www.woolery.com/store/pc/-Strauch-Skeinwinders-Table-Floor-or-Combo-p6900.htm?idaffiliate=59#.VK2mH3tZZvo The kitchen scale I use is by Tefal - I don't think they are making the exact model I have anymore, but I think they're all about the same, anyway. I don't remember how much mine cost, but I know I didn't get an expensive one. The pink yarn I use for demonstration is Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Bulky in color Crush.
