tissue box repurposed

While knitting I always found it hard to keep my wool under control. It was either rolling around the floor getting dirty or my dog was trying to kill it. I found the perfect solution with this Lidl tissue box. Practical and lovely to look at too!

Hi Pam,
Love the box idea,& it's very pretty too.
Here's another knitting tip for you, another way to cure the rolling ball of wool: when you're starting a new ball, pull the thread from the middle rather than the outside and then it won't roll around on you! You use it from the inside out, if you're with me ;)
Makes life easier ;)
