I was going to make some out of binder twine (tut) till my sister got wind of it and donated a load of crochet cotton to me as she thought it would look better (I was more interested in speed ) Itsybitsy Back to top Auntie Noo Joined: 30 Jan 2007 Posts: 485 Location: Guildford Posted: Thu May 22, 2008 9:20 pm    Post subject: I'll look them out tomorrow IB and see exactly what I have, then I'll PM you will details.

It also is a database of yarns and you can keep a track of your own stash!!! You have to sign up to join the waiting list as we're still in beta but it's moving fast now (unlike when I joined and we had to wait 6 months!) It's an amazing resource for craftsters.
