[NFB-Krafters-Korner] fun project today

Mon May 24 15:35:14 UTC 2021

I had that idea after I had a bunch of needles. For those of us that didn't have that great idea from the beginning, we can take a zip lock bag and put one size needle in it with a braille card.

If you buy circular needles, save the plastic they come in and use braille or some other method to label the package, as to what size and length the cable is.
You will be glad you did, from the beginning.  I sure wish I had!

Like the round looms, I assume that circular needles come in different sizes. Is this true? I like my needles but then again I’m a beginner.
