Finally a way I can store my yarn, tho I do still make my yarn into balls

That's so much better. I've been doing them on my thumb :D

that's so clean! I make a mess out of my cakes XD I have no patience

Tysm!! I’ve been using my fingers to wind yarn for a while, this helps a lot!!

Excellent! Thanks🎉🎉

So coooool, love this; thank you for sharing 😊

Thank you, I was about to bake it

Oooooh no baking included? I might try this!😂 but actually thank you for the tutorial!

That’s more work than I’m ready for

I find the yarn ball to be cuter than the yarn cake

How do you bake a yarn cake? For a moment I legit thought that was a real thing 😅

it's so much easier and less clumsy to do the same thing on your own index finger, or start with two fingers and then go to 1 - careful when you put your index finger back in the hole don't have to slip it all the way out, you can cross some yarns and it might be a little bit hard to center pull - and after you start doing the bottom to top motions, rotate it on your finger. Once it begins to get a little bit tight, because of the outer layers being wrapped around it and with the speed at which you begin to do it it will get tighter because you Stretch your yarn's elasticity to the max If you have much grip on it while you're twirling, which will give you flattened yarn that is different and a bit harder to work with and can cause your garment to be the smaller than planned and after washing, your stitches may also be smaller, Anyway, once it begins to get snug It's a reminder to loosen your grip and continue after you slip yur ball/cake closer to your fingertip. By the way, if you take the first four or five inches of your yarn and twist the free end While holding at the five inch mark with your other hand and then fold it exactly in half it will produce a twisted stem to your little apple that you're gonna make when you begin to make your little cake ball of yarn or whatever you call it. lay this along your index finger and hold it down with your thumb while you begin wrapping it round your finger completely cover the knuckle and a 1/2 an inch to an inch above and below the middle knuckle of your finger. Once you get started real good and it's pretty substantial you can take it off your finger and hold it with the center access tilted a little bit and it will give you the perfect orbital wrapping surface and you just need to continue to twist it in your hand to keep wrapping it to make it look like a professional job or like you have a machine.

What is the size of yarn you are using un this video? Btw this method is so helpful.. i loved it!

I make yarn balls. Just pinch the starting point thread together and wrap.

This takes me a lot longer then when it goes in a ball

Is there a benefit to making these instead of balls? :D

That is way too much work
