Daybreak86's DMC Needlework On-the-Go Roll Tip

By , About.com Guide

Daybreak86 shares her method for dealing with the DMC Needlework On-the-Go Roll. She writes, "I've enjoyed using my On-the-Go Roll once I solved an irritating problem - identifying colors and symbols. Simple:
  1. Use a permanent marker and number each loop 1-15;
  2. Make a photo copy of the legend and attach floss in order of the legend to rings, number the legend accordingly, and use 2-sided tape to attach it in lower corner for easy reference.


I found that I can easily locate the appropriate floss just by flipping open a corner of the Roll. Hope this helps fellow stitchers!
