I hand ball my yarn with a center pull when I get halfway through a skein, I've never used a hank yet. But basically, i leave the tail between my fingers as i start the ball, same method as you, but when I switch to the "bow" I am just careful not to wrap the tail. Then round and round you go, like you do, just be mindful to keep the tail free. Nothing too fancy about it. But now I want a winder!! 😂 I do have a nostepinne which I prefer now to my fingers.
Glad I found this ! I got my 1st hank and the same happened to me 😮I destroyed it , I need a swift and ball winder but have limited space

I did the same thing the first time I ever bought a hank from a local yarn store. So sad! I keep my swift and winder tucked away in a closet and only bring it out when I need it. If I'm traveling I simply use my knees to keep my yarn separated while I wind it into a ball.
Omg I love how it looks cakes! So happy you liked the colorway hun 💙🧶

Yes it's so pretty in a cake! Thank you for the stunning yarn! I can't wait to show you what I've been making with it! That video is next.
I crochet and knit for years until I finally caved an got a swift and ball winder about two years ago. I now wish I had done it sooner. 😆 Enjoyed watching this and I need to check out that yarn shop. It’s so pretty. Thanks for sharing with us!

I too wish I wished I would have purchased one sooner! It's totally worth it!
I can’t see a link to your ball winder- can you share the maker band where you purchased. I’m ready for an upgrade!

It looks like the one I got is sold out on Amazon. It's very similar to this one amzn.to/2Mju1g2

@@whimsynorth7922 looks good!! The one I have doesn’t slant up so the cake slips off all the time. This one looks great! Thank you!!

@@JefTy1 Yes that would be so frustrating! My new winder has no issues with that. I think it may have to also do with the second arm that winds the yarn around.
