ABSTRACT:
The apparatus includes a plurality of yarn storage containers which receive skeins of different yarns which are to be interwoven to form a pattern in a knitted garment or article. The yarn containers include a removable top which contains a yarn outlet guide hole. The storage containers are mounted vertically on a horizontal base which has an upper plate that rotates and a lower plate that rests on the floor. About the periphery of the upper plate there are manually actuated turn pedals which may be operated by the foot or hand. As a garment or article is manually knitted, using different yarns in the pattern, the different yarns are twisted about each other forming unmanageable tangles as each leaves its skein due to the necessary manipulation of the yarns on the knitting needles. In use, this apparatus may be rotated manually in relation to the knitting procedure to obviate the formation of tangles in the yarns.
