    Wooden Skein Winder Mechanism :
    After yarn is spun on the spinning wheel and the wheel’s bobbin is full, it is transferred from the bobbin to the skein winder to make a skein. Yarn is stored or sold in skeins. Skeins are then wound into balls for knitting or crochet or onto shuttle bobbins for weaving just prior to use. A skein winder is also used to measure yardage. Each rotation is usually 1, 1.5, or 2 yards. Count rotations while winding to know number of yards in skein.
