Kathy's getting organized for a trip to London this summer to take a course in crewel embroidery at the Royal School of Needlework. She wanted some way to keep her crewel wool organized while she was in class and traveling to and fro so she came up with this fabulous thread roll. She's posted instructions on making your own if you happen to be traveling and using skeins that are all the same diameter. No way will she be known at the Royal School as that American with thread everywhere after this!

Here's the Royal School's website, just to get an idea of what Kathy's going to be doing and where.
