Thanks Mother Hen. I am thinking of probably giving this away because I am having such a tough time with it. If you want it, I will mail it to you. You can give me your address. I have two balls of brown, one is slightly used (I tried and could not untangle, so cut off the ends). Let me know. I can give you my email for your address if that is better for you. And by the way, you just might receive it before you get your free ball from them.
