So, friends, I have to choose between two items to spend my birthday money on, and I need input. If you haven’t noticed, the crocheting bug had bit pretty hard over here, and I’m upping my game in a lot of ways. So these options are both related to that. Upping that crafty game.
Option one is a new set of hooks.
They would feel nicer in my hands while I worked than the plain aluminum skinny ones I have now. Though I’ve used them for years, and they are more than fine, these would be what I would consider luxury, hahaha! Feels SO weird saying rubber crochet hooks are luxurious but 🤷♀️it happened!
Option two is a yarn winder.
When I’m using from a skein of yarn and it starts to get to about the halfway point, it gets really easily tangled, and I need to roll it into a ball. And those suckers roll EVERYWHERE! A yarn winder is a quick, mindless way to roll the yarn up in a way that gives it a flat bottom and will sit nicely and not roll away from me when I want to use it. It also leaves me the option to pull the yarn from the centre, which you can understand if you’re a yarn person, is SO much nicer!
So guys, I have to choose. One or the other. What do I do? Help me chooooose!!!
I’d go with the yarn winder. I am always finding my yarn gets tangled and it drives me crazy.
I’m on a BIG organizing kick, and the balls of yarn are everywhere, and they can’t be stacked because it keeps going overboard! Lol! I think the winder would be SO smart.
