ABSTRACT:
A package holder for mounting a yarn package to a bracket in a creel includes an elongated body member having front and rear ends, a mounting member for attaching the holder to a bracket in the creel intermediate the front and rear ends, and a package securing arm pivotally mounted at a first end intermediate the mounting member and the rear end of the body member. The arm includes a second end and has barbs in an intermediate portion between the first and second ends. The body member includes a notch adjacent the rear end. The mounting member is mounted on the bracket of a creel and the yarn package is positioned so that the body member is received within the core of the package and as the package is pushed rearwardly it engages the arm until the end of the core engages the notch and is stopped. The barbs on the arm grip the interior of the core and acting with gravitational force securely holds the package on the holder. When the package is empty of yarn, a creel attendant lifts the second end of the arm to release the empty core.
