Sometimes it is necessary to use more than one yarn butler for a project. Take the picture below. Notice how the black yarn is wound into a cake and the Anne from Circulo is wrapped in a shape as best described as coming off the commercial winder that they use. They unwind at different rates. That makes it hard to put both yarns on the same yarn butler.
My simple solution is to have two yarn butlers in use at the same time.
The colorful scarf is destined for a boarding school on the Navajo Reservation in Northern Arizona. It has one strand of Anne which is a fingering weight yarn. And one strand of worsted weight cotton yarn in black. They are knit together in double stranded knitting. It is being knit in the round and will be around 6 feet 2 inches long and 6 inches wide. If you look very closely you will notice that I am using 2 different colors of Anne, but from 5 feet away you will not notice.
Behind the yarn busters is my OttLite with a random assortment of stitch markers and a random pen for notes.
Now is the time to add that extra Yarn Butler to your holiday wish list. Some local yarn stores will keep a list so you get exactly what you want for the holidays.
