Abstract
Abstract This invention relates to a cuboid cassette having channels extending one above the other for receiving yarn reels in a yarn-dispensing device. At least a pair of said cassettes are arranged side-by-side and assembled together by cooperating tongue and groove formations in their respective opposed side walls. Upright side projections at the front of each cassette define upright channels receiving a color strip to retain the cassettes against relative longitudinal movement.
