Terry:

If you're interested in a ball winder, here is just one available through 
Webs.   They have others at different prices.  Both Joanns & Herrschners 
have winders as well.

> I unwrapped the yarn, last night and it was in a long loop and kind of 
> felt like a brade. I did fine for a while, but the ends kept getting 
> tangled.
> The yarn is a mess near the end.  they tied the 2 ends together, so I had 
> it unraveling from both ends.  I finally made a ball at each end.  not 
> much left to go.  Any ideas of what to do with the other end so it will 
> not unravel and get tangled with the original piece?
> I sure am not looking forward to having to do this again.  Can someone 
> describe the yarn winder and how much it is.  If I was sure I could tackle 
> this project, I might look into one, but I looked at the patern and it 
> sounds rather hard, to me.

> Any advice about carying craft supplies, such as needles on a plane?
