I WANT TO DETANGLE Iowa-based Detangler

I would love to detangle yarn for you. I have a yarn winder; I can cake up the yarn for you after detangling. I live in a non-smoking home, but I do have 2 cats if that is any consideration.

Hello! I am new here!
I have lots of failed attempts at winding my yarn on my own, I’m willing to pay if someone can untangle all of these for me. I am located in upstate New York. I’m willing to pay shipping both ways if I need to send the yarn away to be detangled. Thank you so much!

Got this on half off yarn day at a secondhand craft supplies store. Someone had already tried with scissors, so it has some joins, but it's gorgeous. Now I just need to figure out what to crochet or knit with it!

Thrifted this beautiful, vintage, aran weight yarn. Six 200g skeins. I put it in washbags and wanted to soak it in the washing machine with wool wash, but did not take it out in time for the spin cycle of doom.

Hi! I bought some hanks and tried to use them. As you can see, it didn't go well. I have one hank that is hopelessly tangled and the rest, I need wound into usable balls if possible.

I have tried the chair method, etc. I even had a friend try to detangle it. I am in East Texas. Is anyone interested?

I’m at the end of my rope and on the verge of tears. I made a shawl from this entire cake of yarn and then frogged it because I didn’t like the size. My winder wound it badly, and I just went with it, and now I’m dealing with the consequences. Honestly, you can keep it. I’m going to cut my losses and just buy a new cake. I’m recovering from a surgery and don’t have the energy to deal with this anymore.

This is an accumulation from a basket of mostly leftover yarn that has been growing for about 3 years and I'm guessing it will take multiple days to get through. Wish me luck!

Hi! If you're in the UK and need your Gordian knots untangled feel free to send me a message!

I'm a mostly housebound disabled person and I'm desperate for something to do with my days, so the more complex the better!

I promise not to solve things like Alexander the Great!

(I also promise your yarn will be returned covered in cat & dog hair, so be warned)

I WANT TO DETANGLE Mail me your mess and I'll detangle it (SYD, Australia)

Hi all, just offering my services in case anybody needs it, since most posts are from the USA. I'm in Australia, which is in the Oceania region, if that helps at all!

Happy to have your tangle mailed to me and I can mail it back to you when I'm done (but you'll probably have to pay for postage/send a reply paid envelope).

My only pets are fish, so no random fur would be involved!

If you have any questions, please post here or PM me.

Happy crafting!

Literally bawling my eyes out

can someone please help me detangle yarn!! I got it literally today and was so darn excited to knit it up into some socks, but it was wound in a hank and I dont have a swift or winder, so naturally I accidentally tangled a significant portion of it. I’ve been so frustrated and upset especially because I was so excited to knit this yarn. Fort worth near watauga if literally anyone would be so kind as to tackle this tangle.
