[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Labeling squares

[Yolanda Thompson]

So, I do a couple of different things. For yarns I label on dymotape,
do not take the backing off, use a one-hole punch and punch a hole in
the very end of the dymotape. Now I take that label and a stitch
marker and label my item.

The labels I use for material are the way around buttons with 2-inch
safety pins.
I am making a mautical afghan with picture squares right now out of
cascade 220. Lots of fun!
