Hi Bernice, we're so sorry to hear about your foot, and hope and pray that
it heals quickly.
Terry P and I are also in the process of sorting and re organizing
everything after remodeling our condo unit.
Just like you, we are trying to find projects for all of the yarn that we
have before we go out and buy more. Of course, these after Christmas yarn
sales don't make it any easier on us, lol.
Take care, and happy sorting and re organizing!

Hi Joyce,
I compared their prices with what a local craft store charges for the same
loops and the difference is very small, pennies. So I bought from
Harrisville designs with free shipping, because there was more variety than
the store had. I am fortunate to have a friend from church that loves to do
sorting and organizing stuff with me. She sorted the variety packs for me.
We put a braille label in each bag.
I had my daughter and son-in-law bring down my yarn stash from upstairs
yesterday. Today, my friend and I are going to start the re-sorting to see
what I have. One of my goals is to find projects to fit my yarn instead of
buying more and more yarn to fit projects. I have 4 giant bins. I like to
tell people that they are the size that could be a coffin. It always get a
laugh.
My friend helped me sort all of my necklaces and headbands on four tie racks
on my bedroom wall. Then we did the ear rings, baretts, bracelets and rings.
I have colorful dishes I have bought over the years for each color. We are
also going to sort my bin of gift bags. The bin is pretty big, but not as
big as the yarn bins.
I broke 2 bones in my foot 2 weeks ago and I have been using the time to
rest my foot making a potholder. Then I get up and do more house stuff. I
have 12 made. I used to be able to see color and have fun creating different
color combinations and patterns.
Bernice and the adorable LOLo.

Harrisville has the original potholder looms and the best 100% cotton loops.
They are more expensive,, but well worth it.
Bernice have you gotten the variety pack of loops? I have considered
getting the smaller size loops, but as far as the large loops I will pick my
2 packs of colors so I get what I want.
They run "Specialsfor different holidays. That isn't too expensive.
Joyce variety pack, but the large hoops

Hi Henry,
Love knitting is a web site, I could forward the next sale they send me.
Harrisville Designs is a company that sells the only consistently good
potholder loops I have been able to find. They have the regular size and the
longer ones to go on what they call the professional loom. They have an
accessible web site.
I got my other craft present today. It is an x frame with material. On each
side of the material project bag there is a piece of material that you can
flip out with pockets that can hang outside of the main bag. You can pick up
the handle and it closes and it can be carried easily from room to room. It
is quide light weight. It is also from Amazon.
Bernice

Hi Bernice, that round cylindrical yarn holder etc sounds like a
yarn/knitting caddy. Terry and I have a square version.
Are those 2 yarn shops accessible and are they .com sites?
Thanks.

I got this really neat craft bag. It came from Amazon, but I don't know what
it is called. It is cylindrical with a verticle divider making four
sections. There are holes in the top for you yarn to feed through. Also
there are 3 pockets on the outside and four tall thin pockets for needles. I
also bought myself 4 books from blind mice mega mall.
There is one more thing coming craft related, but I don't know what it is.
I also took advantage of yarn sales from Love knitting and Harrisville
design.
Bernice and the adorable LoLo.

Good Morning!
I hope everyone had a safe holiday season!
For today’s question....did you receive anything crafty as a gift? Yarn,
crochet hooks, knitting needles, plastic canvas, a row counter, a gift card
to your favorite craft store?
For me, I had bought some variegated cotton yarn and it arrived on Christmas
Eve!
