My talented mom, Noreen writes b5media’s yarn blog, Hankering for Yarn – but did you know that it’s more than yarn?
Noreen has written some posts that will work great for fabric folks as well as yarn fans:

How to make a yo-yo circle.
 Snip catchers – saves you a lot of time cleaning up!
Creative clutter control in the studio.
Use yo-yos and crocheted lace to create amazing art clothing.
Yo-yos even make great vests for teddy bears!
