Cramped yarn

I have been working on a line of reflective yarn items that will eventually make it into my Etsy shop. 

The problem has become getting the yarn in a variety of colours.  Few places locally carry it, and those that do seem to be dropping the line.  Even fewer seemed to carry the full range of colours available.

So I finally broke down and bought some from an online Canadian supplier.  Two balls in 3 different colours.  I don't buy much online at all, but there wasn't much choice.

I just got a tiny box delivered.  At first, I thought it held 2 balls of yarn, and I had images of my daughter's tiny iPod coming in a giant box.

I was wrong!  All 6 balls were squished into the box.  No wasted space!

My fingers... they itch for a hook now.

Whoops...

I was wrong.  My order is missing one ball of olive green.

Time to send an email...
