Random Quick Tip!
Yo Yo Templates Made Easy.If you make alot of yoyos a good template for making them of different sizes is to use various sized plastic lids. Put an adress label on a lid and mark on it how big the lid is in inches and centimeters then put it in your craft box. Then when you need a certain size circle for any reason, just pull out the correct size lid to mark your fabric.
