  • Great Idea and tutorial. Thanks for sharing. I have lots of crochet thread and a box full of sharpie markers, guess I need to get some cardboard and get busy. Thanks again. As for just buying it ...Why buy more stuff when you can use what you have an abundance of already, Save up the money to get new toys I dont have or cant make. :)

  • @Girlybunches

    :D I've seen it mentioned that the twine is so cheap why not just buy it? But the colours (at least at first) were so limited. I wanted that minty green but you couldn't get pastels at all certainly not in the UK.

    Or maybe they just clicked in error ;-)

  • That is genius. Thanks for the great idea!

  • Wow...I've thought about trying to make my own Baker's Twine but didn't have a clue where to start. I never would have come up with this great idea. Thanks!! Can't wait to try it.

  • This is wonderful! Thanks for sharing.

  • Thank you! Love this tutorial 

  • Thanks so much for sharing this!!! I bought some twine at a Lowe's....I thought I could make my own from that. I just saw this video....I can't wait to try it now...I wasn't sure how I was going to get the color on it!!!

  • I love that you shared this. I have tons of the crochet cotton and well markers I have lots of as well. So now to make my own in designer colours! Thank you

  • wicked cool tip and I must try this, I feel the same way wish CTMH sold baker's twine and it's hard to find where I live...thanks for sharing and thanks for being a facebook friend.

  • I only use three kinds of music - this type, which is my FIL's bluegrass band Mill Run Dulcimer Band (Sullivan's Hollow is the title of the song), copyright free music from Incomptech, or Audio Swap selections (which I don't use now cause you can't adjust the volume levels :)) HTH!

  • Love it. Also can you please tell me what the music is you're playing in the background. Love that country blue-grass!

  • What a great idea!!! Thanks for sharing that!!!!
