by Kristin Omdahl
When I went to Austin, Texas to be a part of The Knit Show, the generous swag bag included the Boye Tassel Maker . Tassels are so HOT right now. And, they are SO EASY to make! Be So Fine Yarn is gorgeous for tassels because it is slinky and silky so the movement is beautiful and with a good blunt cut, the cut ends look great, too.
