I know I’m working at cleaning OUT the sewing room but these things came my way from Ohio a month or so ago and I was thrilled!
Stored in this bag! Because don’t we all save our frozen vegetable bags to reuse?….
The back of the bag IS clear so it does make a better storage bag than the current ones I get that are not transparent.
INSIDE —
I think all 3 of us girls worked on this. I remember watching Nancy do it and and wishing so much that *I* would get a turn. Now the yarn is all used and we all got turns.
I also remember making new spool knitters —
The orange one is purchased and I started this with the orange & cream yarns. We made the spool with the blue yarn but I guess I didn’t get very far. The tail is barely peeking out of the bottom of the spool.
The old box with a brand new spool of thread is from my SIL. Love it!!
and sew on... 
How fun! So that little guy makes a cord? I’ve never seen such a thing!
It makes a round knitted tube from the yarn. I do believe the plan was for an orange and cream RUG!! LOL! Coil it around and sew it together. ha!
ooo…. can i borrow one of those? i have am idea for some nice cording for a project in the future… pretty pls?
Yes, my dear. What’s mine is yours! 😉
How fun!
I used to have one of those knitter things when I was little! I loved it – wish I could find one for my girls. Do you know if they still make them? Thanks for bringing back a precious memory!
I remember those knitting spools! We made ours. I remember making loooooong coils . . . . . I don’t remember making anything of the coils, though! 😀
