    I bought this stand at an antique mall several years ago. It's purpose is obvious, but I've never seen another one like it. Does anyone recognize it? It has holes drilled in the center to hold knitting needles, the basket to store works in progress, and the global container on the top has a slot to dispense a ball of yarn. There are no markings.

      The colors & wood (maple?) remind me of the late '40's.
      It is definitely a "new-to-me" item but appears a very desirable for its uniqueness!
      Congratulations!

      Thanks for your comment, J. C. I've seen a lot of knit, crochet, and sewing "stuff", but never another one like this. Things like this seem to call out to me. I'm not sure of the wood, but it does have a maple look. It is precious to me.
