Imperfect Colorwork Wheel 2.0 – Functional Seconds

Unlock your creative potential with the Colorwork Wheel V2.0—a 3D-printed tool designed to keep multiple yarn cakes organized and untangled during your colorwork projects. Made from durable PLA+/PLA Pro, this upgraded version features improved stability and a refined yarn guide to make your crafting experience smoother and more enjoyable.

This tool is perfect for colorwork techniques like tapestry, floating, fair isle, and other methods where all yarns are carried together.

❗ Not compatible with intarsia colorwork techniques.

***V2.0 2025 vs. 2024: The 2025 version features an upgraded stand-to-base connection for enhanced stability. For the 2024 version, we recommend adding super glue (suggested: Loctite Gel Control) to the base if extra support is needed. Both versions may contain a 2024 version center peg.

🧶 Key Features

Durable 3D Print: Crafted from high-strength PLA+/PLA Pro filament.
Holds 4 Yarn Cakes: Each peg holds up to 100g yarn cakes wound with a yarn ball winder.
Perfect for Colorwork: Helps prevent tangling while keeping color changes clean and consistent.

✨ What Makes This Wheel “Imperfect”?

These wheels are fully functional but include minor cosmetic flaws such as:

Surface rippling
Burn or brown marks
Color striping or discoloration
Glue drips/spots
Small sounds when spinning the wheel (due to an imperfect bearing)
Small surface splits

These imperfections do not affect performance and will not snag your yarn.

🛠 Tips for Best Use

Spin the center plate or yarn ball pegs—never the yarn guide.
Always change colors in the same order they are placed on the wheel.
Insert and remove parts at 90° angles to avoid damage.
If your wheel feels unsteady (due to uneven yarn weights or surfaces), place a small paperweight on the base for added stability.
For optimal results, use neatly wound yarn cakes. Avoid using tangled or loosely wound yarn.

Intermediate to advanced crafters
Colorwork crochet and knitting projects
Those working with 2–4 yarn strands at once
