Desperation...

 Since the battery on my camera decided to exhaust itself while taking photos tonight (yes it's the camera's fault not mine for not charging it) I don't have any update pics for tonights post. Let's just say while I was starting module 7 of 28 I am now on #15. So there is progress.

In other news...

I have reached a point of desperation I am sure all knitters at some point must face. It can't just be me. I have knit several projects over the years. I have worked with numerous types of yarn in different shaped skeins. I have worked with said yarn by pulling from the outside strand and by the end inside the skein, however it came from the manufacturer. I have even work from a rather round ball that rolls across the floor when i tug it for more slack. The only time I have ever worked on a set yardage of yarn that even remotely cooperated, it was the 50% wool 50% camel, it had been wound I am assuming by a swift and ball winder combo, I am not eniterly sure. All I know is that it pull from the middle and stayed in one shape without tangles until it was used up. I loved this skein. I need a winder. I have no idea what the diference between:

and this... 

All I know is that I need a ball winder/swift, thingie that will give me a better workable skein, one that pulls gracefully from the middle, with no clogs or twists or flippin' knots of any kind! Desperate I tell you! I need a winder thingie now!!!!
