I don't have a ballwinder, so I wind my balls by hand. I've gotten pretty good at winding from the skein around my knees, and I wound two skeins that way in the car this summer. The third skein, though, gave me no end of trouble - it took me a week to finally get all the knots out and get it into a ball!
Ouch
ReplyDeleteUgh... that's just painful.

Ouch is right. I did that once--the very first time I knitted with a skein. Never again. It took me a very long time to get all the knots out.
