In Spinning , a lazy kate is a device used to hold one or more Spool s or Bobbins in place while the Yarn on them is manipulated. Typically, a lazy kate consists of multiple rods and come with bobbins that fit onto them. They may also have a band that loops over all the bobbins to make sure that the spools spin at an equal rate; called a tensioned lazy kate. A lazy kate is particularly useful when Plying yarn. Some spinning wheels have built-in lazy kates. While a wooden lazy kate such as the one pictured is much sturdier, the same effect can be acieved with a cardboard box and some sort of dowels.
