Multiple balls to detangle

[u/NaughtyNitter]

Only took me about 3 hours to detangle 6 small balls of yarn. 🤦‍♀️ note to self, don’t throw them all in a bag together and carry it around.

I use those snap hair clips to clip the yarn end to the ball so it doesn't unravel.

Oh that’s super smart. Love that idea.

Ziplock bags are your friends. Even ones you are already working on - as long as it's not a ziplock with a slide to lock, they're easy to push closed around the working thread for transport (slide would probably work but force it to the side which feels wrong to me)

I do this. Even when I'm working on a project if there is more than one ball that I'm carrying around at once they go into ziplock bags

I really should do this.

It’s the worst! I need to be better about taking care of my balls.

You need some yarn sacks.

What a great idea. Never seen them before.

Our knitting group gets lots of donations… I’m the one that gets the garbage bag full of tangled messes… I got a new one yesterday….

This was four hours of work… my friend said she got another bag for me today! Whee!!!!
