Let's talk about starting your new skein of yarn. Do you struggle to find the center pull? Do you pull from the outside of the skein? Do you rip off the label? I'll show you what I do to start my new skein and a fun yarn holding container you can make yourself.

I saw you pulling stuff from the middle and I did that and just a bunch came out. My mom nearly screamed when I yelled “END” because I finally found it.

It truest is a 50/50. Sometimes it’s just a little but so many times it’s a big mess. Just need to be patient and dig for the end!!

So useful and encouraging for me to see you persisting to find the central end. Really helpful. Thanks

I always get the yarn barf looking for center. Then it’s all knotted up. I am anxious to try this! I have gotten so frustrated trying to untangle etc I’ve thrown good yarn away. Not much. I do have to put it down and come back to it later. Hope this helps. So glad I found your videos!

Wow!!!! After moooonths of just battling I did this “fingers into the center of the skein” I got it the first time!!!! Thankyou soooooooooo much❤

Yep, this is what I do,with mixed results. It’s very rare I pick out the right end right away. I do have a ball winder but as you say, it’s a faff. Would it REALLY be too difficult for yarn producers to leave the end sticking out for us?

LOL totally agree why do they have to hide it. There are some yarns that are kind to us but they are few and far between.

Got it! It was in a big wad but easier to undo from the start than in the middle of a project. And I’m going to try the container trick!

My Grandma kept her skeins each in an empty 2 liter bottle with the lead coming out of the top. Such a great idea but gotta get that center pull! Thanks for the tips.

It’s not the getting started I find hard when working from the middle, it’s the skein collapsing into a big heap of barf as I get to the the last third or so of the yarn. Is there a way to handle that?
