I will start another group after 10.
We will have a month after the sign ups close to get them done...and of course as soon as ya sign up ya got plenty of time to make them.
BOOOOOO !

I was wondering what the group thinks about using various sizes of yoyos or prefer the CD template size?
What do you think?

I think my community bought out our Joann's already...I was looking weeks ago and glad I had some on hand at home to make an apron for that current swap.
I am sure by Sept there will be some out.

I would love to be a part or this; I just learned how to make yo yo's and I think they're so sweet and fun and like potato chips, ya can't make just one. I think I'm addicted to them already! Count me in and btw I also like the cd size. I will send you my address. What FUN; I've never done anything like this before!!

I have made 10 Yo-yos so far. I sat outside on the deck yesterday afternoon for about an hour.
Linda, since no one else responded, I think they should all be about the same size. the CD or 60mm clover templete is probably the best choice. But thats just my opinion.

Linda, (my wonderful halloween apron swap partner)
Count me in. This sounds like lots of fun. I'll get started with 50 yo yo's made from a CD template... never thought of using a CD for size but what a great idea. I guess they can be from different colors as long as they are halloweenish right?
