Re: *skritchskritchskritch*From: CatWom7711@aol.com (Tia Mary) ah! How elegant - I've been using tweezers and my trusty needle nose I have several "fiber hiders". My first is an original DoLolly made by the original company. The next one I bought has kitties on the ends of the two pieces -- made of lovely bone of some sort. The third also has kitties on the ends - not sure what they are made of -- LOL! The problem is that none of them are near at hand when I need a DoLolly so I usually end up using a length of thread and a blunt needle. You fold the thread in half and put the cut ends through the needle eye -- make sure that the loop end is longer than the cut ends. Run the threaded needle underneath the back of existing stitches, *STARTING** at a point near the loose fibers to be hidden. Put the loose fiber ends through the loop of the thread that is through the needle. Now carefully pull the needle -- thread loop holding the fiber ends -- through the existing stitch backs and VOILA', your fiber ends are hidden. It's just easier than getting my fat Irish behind up and out of my chair and digging through my needlework bag to find one of my fiber hiders :-))).
