Has your yarn ever rolled across the floor, under the couch, and out of reach? Has it got dirty and tangled? A yarn bowl keeps these knitting menaces from happening. If you have pets, the yarn bowl also known as knitting bowl will keep your yarn contained and keep the pet's hair of. Yarn bowls are portable for knitting in various places around the house. Simply pick up your knitting project along with your yarn bowl and easily move it around the house. They make beautiful decorations you can keep around your house either empty or filled with leftover yarn or works in progress. They can hold your work when you're not knitting or crocheting.
