I've been stippling like a maniac for two days, stopping often to rest my
bones and swoop out the fuzzies. When the bobbin runs out I mutter. I also
stop and sweep away the build-up from everywhere I find clouds of lint and
gopher remains. But, I wonder, if that kind of shreds of lint are piling up
around my SM, what are they doing to my eyes?
My eyes responded.
I've changed contact lenses. I've wetted them lots. I'm wondering if I
ought to put my head in a plastic bubble or cover the SM with one. I've
tried the logical solutions. Anybody have an off-the-wall thought? Polly

On the wall solution:
If you have a spare pair of glasses wear them instead of the
contacts, and rinse your eyes out with saline solution every time you
change or reload bobbins.

Off the wall solution:
Swim goggles. The kind that seal around each eye individually, not
the ones that cover half your face including your nose.

Now imagine what you are breathing in. You might want to add a dust
mask.
