In this review the Prym Big Sully is judged as a purposeful accessory for knitters and crocheters who want a clean, mobile way to manage multiple yarns. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of a large clear globe and multiple feeding options that significantly reduce tangles and keep yarn dust-free while you work or travel. The review covers how the hinged lid, six yarn channels and removable ball tray perform in real projects and explains why the accessory feels more like a workshop tool than a simple yarn bowl.
Key Features
- Large clear globe: The durable Lexan globe with a hinged lid locks to protect yarn from dirt and keeps projects visible so you can monitor tension without opening it.
- Six yarn channels: Multiple feed options let yarn run from either side or the front, providing even tension and preventing tangles for stranded colorwork or mosaic knitting.
- Non-slip base with storage: The base grips work surfaces securely in transit and removes to reveal hidden storage for stitch markers, darning needles and small notions.
- Integrated tools: The built-in needle gauge and swatch ruler help confirm hook and needle sizes and measure gauge without reaching for extra tools.
- Ball tray and spindle: The tray keeps separate balls organized for colorwork and removes to allow larger skeins, while the spindle suspends cones for smooth feeding.
Who It's For
The Prym Big Sully is best for intermediate to advanced crafters who do colorwork, hold multiple yarns, or take projects on the road and want tidy, consistent feeding. Those who work with standard skeins, yarn cakes or cones will find the globe roomy and the channels helpful for preventing accidental tangles.
Beginners who only use a single small ball of yarn or need ultra-compact travel solutions might prefer a simpler yarn bowl. Also, crafters who rely on very large specialty super bulky cakes should check dimensions, as a few customers found size expectations varied for oversized cake brands.
