LOL - This sure beats the plastic grocery bag I was using. I love this yarn barrel. I'll agree with another reviewer that making the extension black and white striped was a design failure. Why not make it the same color as the rest of the barrel???
To see how much it could hold when not extended I added two 1lb skeins, a 12oz. skein and a 6oz. skein. Truthfully, I could have still added a 4oz. skein without having to force it to fit. The first photo shows it filled and the other shows each of the skeins alone so you can see the size and brand for a better point of reference. (I tried to select yarns that are sold at most craft stores around the country.)
There is an abundance of pockets for hooks, needles, and other accessories. If I'm following a pattern I make a copy so I can mark it up without destroying the book it came from, therefore I can fold the copy to fit in one of the 4 large exterior pockets (one is clear plastic). There is a 5"x6" clear plastic zippered pocket on the inside of the lid. There are 3 narrow pockets which each hold individual hooks or a pair of small to medium knitting needles.
Given all of the storage compartments and varying ways to use them, it comes with a padded shoulder strap, but also a handle on top of the lid for versatility in carrying. There are 4 grommet pass-throughs for yarn. They're smooth on both sides so yarn won't snag on them. The lid also has a zipper on top so things can be slipped in without lifting the lid.
This was designed by someone who actually crocheted or knitted. It is very well sewn - sturdy thread and secure seams. The fabric is similar to lightweight denim and is lined with plastic making this somewhat waterproof.
I would highly recommend this to a fellow yarn lover. It would make a very thoughtful gift, and the price is right.
