crochetlady2012 Posted March 14, 2014 I am just wondering about something. I would like to know how many of you make center pull yarn balls? I just started last week & it seems to make my crocheting go so much faster. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoseRed Posted March 14, 2014 I make them but I still use the them from the outside. I hate when you get towards the end and they cave in on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crochetlady2012 Posted March 14, 2014 I have one that I am using that has pretty much already collapsed on me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoseRed Posted March 14, 2014 I just stick the cake in a bowl and let it roll. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cathoms Posted March 14, 2014 I love my center pull yarns. I do however put it into a bowl so when it collapses it contained. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crochetlady2012 Posted March 14, 2014 They do seem to make everything go so much smoother don't they? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerbread Girl Posted March 15, 2014 Always! I do it more to avoid any unwanted headaches of running into knots or any other issues that sometimes hide in the skeins. I much prefer to be able to deal with that stuff before I start a project, so that my flow doesn't get interrupted while I am working. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CuriousTiff Posted March 15, 2014 I have to have my yarn center pulled.... It drives me crazy otherwise... When the cake gets flimsy I just wind it up again! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
autumn35 Posted May 22, 2014 As soon as I start using my yarn I roll it into balls and clip on a bobbi pin to hold it til I am ready to crochet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gdenesse Posted June 5, 2014 I pull from the center. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elita Blackwell Posted June 25, 2014 I pull from the center on all my skeins. I generally make cakes with the leftover part of a skein, I don't cake a full skein, as winder can only do a few ounces. But I do love my yarn winder, hubby gave it to me for birthday this year. I spent a whole day making cakes...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Avon Lady Posted June 25, 2014 I pull from the center on all my skeins. I generally make cakes with the leftover part of a skein, I don't cake a full skein, as winder can only do a few ounces. But I do love my yarn winder, hubby gave it to me for birthday this year. I spent a whole day making cakes...... I did the same thing when I first got my yarn winder! (But those cakes are really hard to spread icing on, aren't they? ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LI Roe Posted June 25, 2014 Right now I roll any leftover yarn into balls and then put it into a Snapware container so it is contained and doesn't try to escape as I am crocheting with it. I haven't gotten around to getting a yarn winder just yet. Roe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maryeah Kramer Posted January 4, 2015 I have a yarn wonder that I love, but I don't use it with every project. I get excited about using something or getting started and just don't always take the time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norwinmom Posted January 26, 2015 When I'm working with a new skein of yarn I usually pull the end from the center and I don't have to worry about my yarn getting tangled. But after I've finished my project, I take the extra and run it though my yarn winder. I can't imaging working any crochet project with out using a center pull. It just seems to go much smoother.
