The Prym Comfort Twist Knitting Mill is a hand-cranked tool that turns yarn into knitted I-cord tubes for embellishments, weaving and accessories. It clamps to a table or works held in the hand, and the handle turns either way so left- and right-handed users can crank it. It works best with lightweight, smooth yarns. Compared with plain spool knitters, the table clamp and reversible crank make longer cords less tiring to make, but it is a single-purpose tool and thicker or textured yarns can jam it.

Owners find the mill quick and easy for making I-cord, and the reversible crank and table clamp are often singled out. Others report jams, dropped stitches and a plastic feel that keeps it from being a favorite.
The Prym Comfort Twist Knitting Mill (57109) makes I-Cord tubes that can be used for embellishments, weaving, accessories and more. It can be secured to a table or used in the hand.
To use it, loop the yarn end through the outside hooks on the mill. Thread a tapestry needle with the yarn end and insert it down through the center of the mill until it comes out of the bottom. The handle turns in either direction, so it works for right- and left-handed use.
It works best with lightweight, smooth yarns.
