[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Question days

[Becky Frankeberger]

If you are having trouble making round chains, try a hook with a flat neck.
You have less chance pulling the chain tight. I always loosely role my yarn.
The yarn should squish some if you are rolling it loose enough. Also as you
role check for nots. If you can't get rid of the knot by pulling each part
of the knot till it comes out and makes the yarn continue unbroken. If it is
a tiny knot you may want to use the yarn for your edging. If the knot is
large, but it off. Use this skein for fringe or making something smaller
than an afghan. If you are making toys, you can tuck a large knot inside.
Secure it inside the toy.

ReNae suggests things like Tuesday Tips, Friday Fun, or Wednesday question
of the day.

Tomorrow is Tuesday, so we all could try to think if we have any helpful
crafting tips for each other.  I'm not sure I do, but I'll give it some
thought, and I hope others will, too.
