PCT No. PCT/EP87/00033 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 17, 1987 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 17, 1987 PCT Filed Jan. 27, 1987 PCT Pub. No. WO87/04418 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 30, 1987.A yarn storing device (1) comprises a storage drum (2) and a sensor (5) arranged at the withdrawal end (3) of the storage drum (2). The sensor (5) has the form of an eyelet (6) for guiding the yarn (4) and generates a signal during the withdrawal of yarn (4) having a frequency corresponding to the number of turns of yarn withdrawn per time unit. For enhancing the reliability of detecting the withdrawal of yarn on the basis of the sensor signal, the eyelet (6) of the sensor (5) is movably mounted on a housing (7) of the sensor (5) and comprises a light-reflecting surface (11) wherein a light-emitting element (8) and a light-receiving element (9) are fixed to the housing (7) such that the light generated by the light-emitting element (8) falls on the light reflecting surface (11) and is directed towards the light-receiving element (9) when the eyelet (6) has a predetermined relative position with respect to the housing (7).
