I had never knit with two strands held together before, and when I looked up ways to manage it, I thought winding them together was extremely clever too. I didn't see any downsides to it... until I actually started winding.Kaiyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962273893928934473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468334680054462086.post-34554113742307376872014-05-10T19:28:59.500-06:002014-05-10T19:28:59.500-06:00I did not, in fact, get a nap. :( My ball winder i...I did not, in fact, get a nap. :( My ball winder is usually very good and well-behaved, and this is the first time I've had any sort of trouble from it. My swift, on the other hand, absolutely loves to gobble up and shred yarn if I don't take care.Kaiyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05962273893928934473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6468334680054462086.post-45416763457216522362014-05-10T19:27:19.434-06:002014-05-10T19:27:19.434-06:00I love the yarn-winding phase too.

I have to do the first ball about five times before it's right, every time I use it.
