I was reading the paper and in "Ask Mr. Know-It-All" I came across an article asking why her Grandmother referred to a ball of yarn as a "clew". She thought her Grandmother had made that term up.
Her answer was :No, your Grandmother did not make that up. "According to the dictionary, a clew is a ball of yarn, thread or cord."
I love learning things like that!!!!!

I certainly didn't know that!
I, too, like to learn new things, new terms, etc.
Thanks Marly!
