[Nfb-krafters-korner] new list members

I have all the print copies…but unfortunately my hard drive with the electronic one died a few years ago.
Latch hooking is a blast…but I find it gets too boring….smile….I will look around for a pattern though.
As for cutting latch hook yarn there is a nifty wooden device that is similar to a ruler. It has a slit down one side. You wrap yarn around this piece of wood and then take your scissors up the slit to make the right size yarn. On this note of sizing…I have made abstract pictures with left over yarn and have added a didimension of different yarn lengths to help give if a different feel.
