I almost missed this one. What a great idea! It's fairly simple. I could probably MacGyver some kind of contraption that would hold all the balls of yarn. Then, perhaps, a handmade top, with holes poked through it for the individual singles. I need to go to a carpet store and beg, borrow, or steal one of those cardboard jobbers that carpet gets wrapped on. I could it into lengths just long enough...... Hmmm, wait. PVC. About 6" in diameter. It already has holes in it. I just happen to have handy man type neighbors. It'll still be a MacGyvered project,but I'm pretty sure we can make it work. Thanks everyone! :) -- wrnk d2
