Glimakra Swift
Description
Glimakra umbrella swifts are made from birch, in two sizes, the regular size which holds skeins up to 72″ (2 yards) around, and the large swift which holds skeins up to 100″ (2.75 yards) around. They are constructed and finished to get the most appropriate surface for the yarn. You can clamp these swifts to stand vertically, as shown or you can mount them horizontally which can make for easier unwinding, especially for fine threads.

Gimakra umbrella swift
I've owned my swift for 40 years and the only maintenance I've ever had to do is retie it every so often. For the first time ever, I decided to apply some cutting board butter to the center spindle as the swift was starting to get a little stiff and groan a bit as I was winding a ball. This is a well loved and well used tool which I can't imagine being without!
