I think (remember--I'm not that bright...) that they fall apart easier in the little yarn cakes--that's why they leave them in hanks... but about your comment w/Coach Susan about where to take DD on the weekends... lessee... after you've exhausted the park, the mall (where they have play areas) Target-for-a-toy, Jamba Juice, the pet store, the zoo, their room where there's six-thousand dollars worth of toy rubble, a friends' house, a relative's house, local museums, local theatres, my Local Yarn Store (this is for me, but Babetta has grandchildren who come in and play, so it's a fun place:-), any large grassy area where they can run in circles, the exploratorium, and your bedroom for a tickle fight, that's when you hire a baby sitter and take your husband to a movie:-) Yeah--the baby-sitter's a toy...Amy Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04885706951931450373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25461517.post-73861417721545366842007-02-13T09:16:00.000-05:002007-02-13T09:16:00.000-05:00Is your database related to my database?!

(In some cases, 880 yards.) I assume it's the same way for other places; to wind it into a ball is usually another processing step that just means more time spent and more money out the window. In my case, what with my low production and by-hand methods, you're talking about adding a half hour to an hour to each lump of yarn I dye. <BR/><BR/>If you really want me to wind it into a 'cake' on my ball winder, let me know when you order and I'll do it for you. <BR/><BR/>But only for you, sweetie.
