Above is some lovely hipknits cashmere I bought to make socks with. Unfortunately someone had tangled it up in the shop before I got there. I thought it'd be ok. But that's it still with much to untangle FOUR hours in. Really. Those socks better be worth it.
When not balling yarn, I've been spending the evening sorting a parcel for my secret pal. Its a collection of things (suppose it should be kept secret) along with a card I've made using a picture printed from the Victoria and Albert Museum's knitting database.
In other news, someone has invented glow in the dark knitting needles. There is something very wrong about this.
And on a very different note, I appear to have found another wooly-crayon-maker (you'll need to scroll down).

Oh no - tangled yarn looks bad. Did you manage to rescue it? If not drop me an email and I'll see what I can do to help. Was it the pink and orange colour?
I had exactly the same problem with the HipKnits Cashmere I bought at the Ally Pally last year. The whole skein was just one big knot and it took me ages to untangle it. It's lovely soft yarn, though, isn't it?
I like it, it looks a little bit bad, but I can understand that it is not easy, thanks for the post..
Wow, there is a lot of effective info in this post!
