For us non-knitters, what's the context?

[–] elisse@mas.to 8 points 11 months ago (1 children)

@HonoraryMancunian It’s about a yarn bowl which has an indentation on the side to pull your yarn out. The indicated diameter is the diameter of the bowl and how far you can pull the yarn out without the bowl toppling or the ball falling out.

Just thought I'd mention, you don't have to @ people here. Comment replies show up on that bell at the top of their page.
