Think we can handle two subjects at once? We will try. Adrianne's Attic is closing their doors and I was able to buy some glorious flannel from them. Tonight I was changing the blade in the rotary cutter and make a happy discovery. Now mind you, I am a card-carrying coward. I put 911 on speed-dial before I even dismantle the cutter. I am terrified of sharp objects. Anyhow, I was easily able to separate a stack of new blades by holding them wrapped with a scrap of heavy flannel. The flannel gripped just right, and, of course, did a nice job later of removing the grunge on the cutter. Allergy? Could it be? Rather often, I have blisters on my left hand. Between my pointer and middle fingers, across the top of my hand down to the wrist. I've thought it to be soap or cleaners or some such. Wondered today what my left hand was exposed to that way and it doesn't affect my right hand at all? That's exactly the route the yarn I use to crochet preemie baby caps takes. Ponder this with me. Could it be that something they use to prepare Bernat Baby Beehive ( a luscious yarn) is really irritating to my left hand? If so, how could it be good on a preemie? Polly
