The crocheters and knitters sometime do their craft while
traveling. To keep the yarn-ball in a 'secure' place, put
the ball inside a modified empty plastic water bottle to
prevent the ball from rolling around.
*This idea was inspired by my Korean friends during my
stay in Beijing-China
Clean an empty plastic water bottle.
Cut the bottle into 3 parts. Better to find the 'waists' as
the points to cut. Here I picked
the cutting point at 12 cm away from the bottom and at 9 cm
away from the top.
Throw away the un-used middle part.
You can now slide the top part to the bottom part to make a
close container.
Put the yarn-ball inside. Pull the yarn-end through the hole
at the top part. It is best to pull the yarn-end from the
inside of yarn-ball rather than from the outer side. Now you
are ready to knit/crochet comfortably
while traveling.
Better still, you can use it as a simple container, too ;)
