A yarn bowl is a specially designed container for your ball or cake of yarn. It features a distinctive J-shaped or spiral cutout on its side. To use it, you simply place your yarn ball in the bowl and thread the working end of the yarn through the slot. As you knit or crochet, the yarn smoothly dispenses, preventing it from rolling away, getting tangled, or collecting dust and pet hair from the floor. The weight of the bowl keeps it stable, providing consistent tension for more uniform stitches.

All TirGlas yarn bowls are individually handmade in stoneware pottery with leather handles.

All our yarn bowls are individually handmade in two designs and four glazes. There is a flared base designed and a round base design. There is no practical difference in these two designs, just matter of personal preference of the shape of the yarn bowls.

Every yarn bowl has a unique leather handle for practical use from a UK tannery - a perfect combination of style and function.

A yarn bowl holds your yarn ball in place while you knit or crochet, preventing tangling and keeping it clean and organised.

You place the yarn ball inside the bowl and thread the strand through the swirl or hole, allowing smooth, consistent tension as you pull.

Our Stoneware pottery yarn bowls are quite heavy to provide stability whilst you are knitting.
