Cedar French Spool Knitter with Bone Hook


Here’s a super fancy spool knitter for your collection! Dave handcrafted this 4 ½ inch spool knitter out of Cedar wood and adorned it with pyrography artwork on all sides. Dave really likes to use cedar for pyro-art because it burns easy and smells good while he's working on it.

It has 4 framed stations, each with a different framed motif of artwork and it comes with a carved bone needle. The four knitting pins are solid brass that will not rust.This one of a kind fiber art tool has been initialed and dated by Dave.
