Abstract: A hand tool for winding awning springs is provided. The tool includes an elongate hollow sleeve having an elongate handle member perpendicularly joined to the sleeve and having two handle arms angularly disposed at one end of the sleeve. The hollow sleeve is slotted to define a spring chamber which receives a predetermined length of an awning spring therein. At the end of the winder opposite the handle member is a recessed slot which terminates in a circumferential notch adapted to engage an awning spring leg. A stop member affixed to the handle member and in a sliding relationship therewith, slides along the handle member into the spring chamber to engage the awning spring.
