Even if it's not expensive, Is there a high quality item every serious enthusiast owns?

Or maybe it's a highly prized holy grail item you'd give your right arm for.

Is there something you've had an eye on for a while and you're just waiting for an excuse to treat yourself?

This is a highly contagious problem, and it effects those who crochet as well. I uh, got the bug and made this yard winder from scratch for my girlfriend lol. I use it too, when I get nice yarn in hanks, but it was wildly unnecessary.

Oops, here's the photo: A solid steel yarn winder, mounted on a black walnut base with brass legs and sorbothane feet

This is beautiful work, wow! Winding yarn is so relaxing. Doing it with great tools is even more satisfying. I say it's totally necessary :)
