Our unique Quad Kate is a portable yet solid kate capable of holding up to 4 full bobbins (up to 7 inches long and 4 inches in diameter) for plying your handspun yarns. In addition to a useful 45 degree angle which helps keep yarn under a bit of tension, our exclusive features include:
- removable solid brass rods which won't rust or corrode and large, smooth eyes to corral your singles and prevent tangling.

- nylon inserts to hold the rods - holes in wood alone will deform and enlarge over time. Also, the inserts stand up above the wood a tiny bit preventing bobbins from wearing or staining the wood.
