I love to use crochet thread for projects but I hate it when the ball of thread rolls off my lap and across the floor. This is a very cool solution from Carol Alexander and something else you can make. What could be better?

This is a gorgeous pattern, and great for thread crocheters. Also would work well for tatting, too, if using a ball of thread as well as a shuttle.
Wonderful vintage treasure!

My thread is always rolling off when I bead crochet. Thanks for the link to the pattern, I definately need to make one of these, or rather several, one for each bead crochet project I have going.
