Just picked up two sizes of the yo yo makers.
Wow.. it is so much easier, and they turn out perfect. Wish I had found these a long time ago. |
Aren't they fun!? I have small and extra small -- will pick up more sizes when I have $$$$.

They are great! I have trouble that my hands go numb when I do any fine motor skill task such as sewing a yo-yo. But because I don't have to grip the fabric and the needle with these gadgets, I am able to whip yo-yos without much trouble.
|
I bought one, I just haven't gotten to use it yet.
|
I have two sizes and have not used them yet either. I will when I get done what I have to get done.
|
I love them too. Makes it so much faster. :)

I love these gadgets. A couple of hints: use quilting thread and you wont have to worry about breaking thread; i was having trouble remembering where to stop going around so I put a black mark (Sharpie) on one of the bumps and that is where I start and stop. I really like starting with squares instead of circles. When I stop pulling the yo yo into its shape, I go down with the needle and thread through the middle to the bottom, take a couple of little stitches then make a knot. I always use the yo yo with the bottom down so it doesnt make a difference to me that there are a couple of stitches there.

As part of my anniversary present from hubby which was a trip to Joann's...I got all the little yo yo makers they had except for the oval one. I couldn't see any reason that I would use that one. But I got the heart ones and the butterfly ones along with the regular yo yo makers. I can't wait to play with them on a project.

I have a large and extra large. I've made some, but haven't used any. What do you guys use them for?
