[Nfb-krafters-korner] Puzzling question for loomers

[Susan Roe]

Keep your different color balls in different zip lock bags and then label 
the bags.  If you have strands loose that will need to be woven in the 
correct color location, then tie a knot at the end of one color to designate 
that color yarn end.
