are easily ia, hioned Of cretonnc or silk
made with small hole at the top for the
yarn to slip through, and given weight
and solidity by little pillow Of shot laid
in the box. A small sachct of helIotrop6
and orris powder or any favorite perfume
placed in this case will render the yarn
doubly attractive to work with,
The more attractive of the yarn boxes
have a round top with lat base, but there
arc many square deslgus that arc also
excellent. In making such a case care
must be taken to have the inside as soft
and smooth as tho outer covering. that
