Knitter's Review
August 25, 2005


merino al dente Last week I showed how you can use a niddy noddy to determine how much yarn is in your leftover skeins.

But this technique requires that you unwind the entire skein in the process. What if you don't want to go to all that trouble?

There's another tool you can try. It's a little plastic device called a McMorran Yarn Balance, and we review it this week.
