This is my new strickliesel.

This is my new strick-liesel.  I bought it from Ebay after seeing it on knitxcore.com. by schliess81


I saw this post on knitxcore the other day and I had to order one for myself.  I have the Clover Wonder Knitter so I doubt I will be using this too much but what a neat story and tool to own.  Spool knitting is fun, but I haven't really figured out what to do with the i-cord after.  So far I just wrapped a present with one I made to practice on the Wonder Knitter.

I got a nice little instruction sheet that had my name and address as well as a disclaimer that the tool was not recommended for children under 5 written in the most adorable way.  I love that the seller wrote my name the German way. I've changed my name since I was married but I will always be as German as a California girl who couldn't even pronounce her own name can be.
