View Patent ↗A yarn holder, knitting station, and kit include a base with suction cups to be secured on a surface. A yarn support spinning plate is mounted on the base in spinning relation to the base. A yarn rod is connected to the plate for holding yarn around the rod.
1. A yarn holder, knitting station, and kit, comprising:
a) a base having suction cups positioned to be secured to a solid surface, said base comprising a raised cylindrical portion extending up from the center of the base;
b) an O-ring mounted around the cylindrical portion and supported on a top of the base;
c) a bearing mounted around the raised cylindrical portion and supported on the O-ring; a first yarn support spinning plate supported in spinning relation on the base on said bearing; and
d) a yarn rod connected to the yarn support spinning plate for holding yarn around the rod to allow the yarn to be unwound therefrom and the spinning plate to turn as the yarn is pulled.
2. The yarn holder, knitting station, and kit of claim 1 , wherein said yarn rod has a hollow interior and open top for holding items used for knitting therein.
3. The yarn holder, knitting station, and kit of claim 1 , wherein the base comprises the raised cylindrical portion at an upper surface thereof at the center of the base; said O-ring and said bearing are mounted on and around the cylindrical portion, and the spinning plate includes a recess at the bottom thereof in its center for receiving the bearing therein for allowing the plate to spin relative to the base.
4. The yarn holder, knitting station, and kit of claim 1 , further comprising a second yarn support spinning plate of a different size than the first yarn support spinning plate.
5. The yarn holder, knitting station, and kit of claim 1 , wherein said first yarn support spinning plate further comprises a raised portion at the center thereof on the top surface for receiving the yarn rod thereon at a hollow bottom section of the yarn rod.
6. The yarn holder, knitting station, and kit of claim 2 , wherein said first yarn support spinning plate further comprises a raised portion at the center thereof on the top surface for receiving the yarn rod thereon at a hollow bottom section of the yarn rod.
7. The yarn holder, knitting station, and kit of claim 4 , wherein said first yarn support spinning plate further comprises a raised portion at the center thereof on the top surface for receiving the yarn rod thereon at a hollow bottom section of the yarn rod.
8. A yarn holder and knitting station, comprising:
a) a base having suction cups positioned to be secured to a solid surface, said base comprising a raised cylindrical portion extending up from the center of the base;
b) an O-ring mounted around the cylindrical portion and supported on a top of the base
c) a bearing mounted around the raised cylindrical portion and supported on the O-ring
d) a first yarn support spinning plate supported in spinning relation on the base on said bearing; and
e) a yard rod connected to the yarn support spinning plate for holding yarn around the rod to allow the yarn to be unwound therefrom and the spinning plate to turn as the yarn is unwound.
9. The yarn holder and knitting station of claim 8 , wherein said yarn rod has a hollow interior and open top for holding items used for knitting therein.
10. The yarn holder and knitting station of claim 8 , wherein the base comprises the raised cylindrical portion at an upper surface thereof at the center of the base; said O-ring and said bearing are mounted on and around the cylindrical portion; and the spinning plate includes a recess at the bottom thereof in its center for receiving the bearing therein for allowing the plate to spin relative to the base.
11. The yarn holder and knitting station of claim 8 , further comprising a second yarn support spinning plate of a different size than the first yarn support spinning plate.
12. The yarn holder and knitting station of claim 8 , wherein said first yarn support spinning plate further comprises a raised portion at the center thereof on the top surface for receiving the yarn rod thereon at a hollow bottom section of the yarn rod.
13. The yarn holder and knitting station of claim 11 , wherein said first yarn support spinning plate further comprises a raised portion at the center thereof on the top surface for receiving the yarn rod thereon at a hollow bottom section of the yarn rod.
14. The yarn holder and knitting station of claim 11 , wherein said first yarn support spinning plate further comprises a raised portion at the center thereof on the top surface for receiving the yarn rod thereon at a hollow bottom section of the yarn rod.
