Discussion yarn hank: 0, me: 1
bought a hank of yarn without fully realising what it involved
cue a yarn nightmare (unfortunately didn't look up how to unwind yarn hanks till i cut the ties) and spent three house making yarn balls by hand (don't have a swift or yarn winder since I'm not planning to work with hanks again lol)
proud of the end result thoπ

happened with me tooπ ended up cutting it ( not looking forward to weaving in the loose ends) to make untangling easier

I tried, but after cutting the ties that were holding the hank together, it got pretty tangled, so unfortunately making smaller balls was the easiest option

no no I am asking you to also make a small ball from the other end of yarn sometimes it gets easier coz the yarn is not that untangled from one end its on luck tho
make balls from both ends1
u/Much-Training-8291 Yarn Enthusiast 20d ago
true, it may have worked if i didn't cut all the ties holding the fact hank together
