I just got a ballwinder! Talk about a useful gift ^_^. So guess what I'll be doing today? Yep, that's right. I'll be winding all that yarn I bought for the Prayer Shawl Ministry and making centerpull balls. Man, that's going to take a while... *sigh*. But it beats having to do it by hand! [livejournal.com profile] dpnjedi,[livejournal.com profile] needle_ninja, if you ever need to borrow it, let me know, you're more then welcome to do so ^_^.

ETA: [livejournal.com profile] brightshadowsky, is it normal for the yarn to knot up when you're balling it. On the winder, I mean. I've had 3 balls now that I've had to re-do because they were bigger then they ought to be, and when I was re-doing them, they had several knots in them that hadn't been there when I first balled them. Ideas, hints, thoughts?

ETA2: Somehow, Bahn Frei played by Andre Rieu is a very apt piece of music to play when winding balls *chuckles*
