Wind Your Skein The Right Way

Hand dyed yarn is packaged in a skein (Sometimes also called a hank.). A skein is a giant loop of yarn, with both ends secured, which is twisted back on itself so a yarn band fits on it.

It needs to be wound into a ball before you use it. 

The most important part of winding a skein without tangles is to keep the inside of the loop supported and taut at all times. The easiest way to accomplish this is by using a yarn swift. If you don't have a yarn swift, don't worry, you have other options. To keep your skein from tangling during ball winding you can try:

  • Place your skein over a chair back.
  • Use a friend's arms.
  • Place the skein around your knees - but be careful not to lift it off!

The most important thing is to keep outward pressure on the skein which will prevent the strands from crossing and tangling.
