ok, i know that i linked to thrift shop project recently, but i have to note it once again out of pure jealousy because of today’s post.
she found a ball winder for one dollar! how long have i been looking for a ball winder for less than full price? yeesh. some thrifters have all the luck.

it seems like such a handy tool, but i just can’t justify paying more than $40 for it. oh well. i’ll just keep winding the old fashioned way.
This must have been a nudge from the Universe to start a new project. I haven’t knit anything since May.
If you’re in the neighborhood, stop by and wind some balls!
I was mystified at how those dang things never seem to go on sale. I have an idea about one could a ballwinder at a discount… what if you went to joanns.com and used one of the 40% off one item coupons they always have on there? i don’t know how much it would add up to with the shipping and stuff, but it might work.

yeah, i’ve considered doing the coupon thing for a ballwinder, but now that i know it can be found for a dollar, the cheap-o side of my brain says that even $20 is too much!
i am sure i will break down soon. joann’s does have great coupons.
