i love a vocal kitty cat! thank you for this useful video! :)
You're so welcome! 🐾 💕
I've never seen this before. Love the way this is done. Thank you for the tutorial.
Olive sounds adorable!
Thank you so much, and you’re welcome! Olive is lovely but also very feisty 😅🐾🧶🌸
Like your way of doing that! I've been winding yarn for years.(I'm as old as Methuselah😂). I wrap round 2 fingers then fold and wrap and turn. Same concept❤
Loving your fur catbaby❣️ my fur catbaby perked up at hearing yours. 🤷
Enjoy your tutorials and have used many of them as I don't read a pattern, never learned to old now to learn😂
Stay Safe and Be Blessed
How wonderful to know a great way of winding thread/yarn!! I’ve struggled from time to time trying to wind my yarn in a ball!! Thank you so much for this wonderful demonstration!! 💕🤗
You’re very welcome! I find it quite therapeutic 🌸🥰
Thank you Rebecca olive sounds like a great character bless her I love cats.💙💙
She really is full of character! 😅🐾
I love it when Olive stops by❤. When I start winding yarn one of my cats always comes running , knowing that I’ll wind a ball for her to play with. That’s a great technique thanks for sharing.
I have several cats so hearing Olive in the background just sounds like home. 😸
That’s a much neater way to make a yarn ball than my way. Thank you for sharing your way. 💜🙏🏻
Thank goodness it wasn’t too distracting for you! 🐾😅🌸
Thanks! Never seen it that way, mine is like it but without the thumb. Now… go feed Olive! 😊
Oh she made sure I did 😂🐾
Thank you never seen this method before will definitely do this with my loads of scrap yarn from now on!
That’s wonderful, glad it was useful 🧶🌸
Olive needs a snacky snack!
I’m sure she would always appreciate a little snackaroo! 😂🌸
Hi Rebekah. Great tutorial. I love the way you started this off. I’ve never seen this technique before. I move mine every few wraps but have never started it like that. Very interesting! Your mom is very talented so I’m not surprised! Thanks for sharing with us! Say hi to Olive! Too funny! Very entertaining!😂💗
These videos off yours are so good for beginers. I always try to ball my scrap wool, but OMG when there's a tangled mountain of wool that gets tangled,,,,well let's just say its better than therapy 😂. I find that relaxing and ive been crocheting my since water was invented 😂. But since i found you tube a couple of years ago i just love crochet videos , and I've learned new styles of crochet here from you, your one of my favourites. Love from Ireland xx
That’s amazing to hear Lorna! I love winding but I don’t enjoy detangling 😅😝 I often get my husband to do that bit as he has way more patience for it!
I’m so glad my videos are useful for you! 🧶🌸
Love cats and yada good laugh listening to Olive!❤. Thank you for another great tutorial!
Thank you Joan, she sure likes to let people know when she wants something! 🫣🐾
Such a clever tip, I always end up with tight/stretched yarn even if I try and keep it relaxed thank you
Thank you! 🌸
Really helpful,I was never taught this skill. Also totally realistic with Olive in the background sounds just like my house!
🐾 They sure like to let everyone know when they want something!
Glad this video was helpful! 🧶🌸
I have never seen this before, good to know, thank you!
So glad it’s handy for you! 🧶🌸
Brilliantly helpful. Thank you.
You’re very welcome Karen! 🧶🌸
Thank you this was very informative for me. I always have trouble with this.
I’m so glad this video may be useful for you! 🧶🌸
Oh this is so helpful!! Really satisfying 😀 I know what I'll be doing all evening! Thank you 🌟
It’s addictive and satisfying 🌸🥰🧶
Thanks for doing this tutorial. This is certainly a much neater way to start winding a ball of yarn plus I think it keeps the yarn soft (if there’s such a thing). I think that the yarn is stretched more the way I do it. Love hearing Olive in the background. At first I thought it was a baby 😄😄
Thank you so much and I’m so glad you like it! It definitely stops the yarn stretching 🥰🌸
@@BlossomCrochet OMG!! This tutorial has made such a big difference!! I have been winding all my leftover yarn and I just started to wind some Pantone braids I still have (and now is discontinued 😣). So I’ll see what project I come up with 😆
Thank you again 😊💖✨
😊 Love it! I do something very similar but your technique with the thumb is genius! Thanks!
So glad you like it! Thank you 🧶🌸
Brilliant idea thanks for sharing my one’s always got knotted😊
You’re so welcome Susan and thank you! 🌸🧶
Great idea. Thank you. I also use rubber bands to hold the ends to stop them unraveling.
Perfect! 🌸
This is so helpful and so neat thank you ❤
You’re welcome and thank you ☺️
Oh this is SO much better than the way I've been doing it. Thank you for the instructions! I stood up from the table when Olive spoke to go check on my cats at first until I realized it was the video. What a doll - I bet there is some Siamese in her. >^..^
She’s certainly got the Siamese attitude! 🫣🐾 She’s a tiny tabby with the voice of an angry tiger!
@@BlossomCrochet I would have never guessed!
@@kirnpu She’s a pint sized panther! She’s so small, everyone thinks she’s a kitten 🐾
Very informative and very neatly done. ☮️🌍🌲
Thank you Jennie! 🌸🧶
Brilliant! Thank you!
You’re very welcome and thank you 🧶
So smooth
Thanks Sue! 🌸
Thanks for another helpful video! I love the way you start with a figure eight- keeps it tidier that way.
I’ve always wound the yarn over two fingers (removing them and replacing as I wind) to keep the yarn from getting too tight and stretched. The ball stays snug, but there’s a tiny bit more air between strands. Same idea as your thumb, perhaps.
Anyway, I’ll definitely start now with the figure 8. Many thanks again! 💕
Always good to hear what others do, there’s been some good suggestions in these comments! Thanks so much Cindy 🌸🧶
Hearing Olive my dog has jumped up and run outside looking for the cat! 🤣🤣😂🤦🏼♀️ x
Haha! Oops! Sorry to your dog 🐾😅😂🫣
Thank you. Ive got lots of scraps.
Hopefully this will be handy 🥰🧶🌸
That’s handy. Thankyou.
You’re very welcome! 🧶🌸
and if you leave your tail hanging out in the beginning, it ends up a center pull ball :) You can use your first finger too and put your finger all the way through and your finger ends up serving as almost like a nostepinne. Sharpie markers work great too in place of a thumb or finger :)
Yes absolutely! All great tips! 🌸🧶🥰
Great video, thank you
Thank you Laura! 🌸
Olive is a treasure!
She’s a bite sized beast 😅🐾🥰
Thank you so much 😊
You’re very welcome 🧶🌸
I do that too.😊
It’s so relaxing to wind them! 🌸
tysm i wanted to make one for my cat bc I've seen other orange cats play with them a lot :>
Aw I hope your cat likes them! 🐾
thank you
You’re very welcome 🌸🧶
This was really helpful 😭🙏 Im trying to make a small yarn ball because I dont want to use all my yarn. Its for a project, its a small cat themed roller coaster made out of paper and I wanted to put a small ball of yarn at the top of it :) that and also I like to crochet and I wanna have yarn on me without bringing the entire yarn
Glad it was helpful! That sounds so sweet 🐾🧶
No apologies necessary…😊 We love our fur babies…❤
Thank you…🤗
Very true! 🌸
The beginning end gets tucked in, and I get that. But what do you do with the other end to keep it from unwinding?
I tend to pop a paper clip or small hair clip over the tail to keep it in place 🧶
This is very helpful. I'll try it. Do you know if you can pull the yarn from the middle of the ball, or is it just for pulling from the outside?
If you leave the starting tail out, you can definitely do a centre pull 🥰🌸
@Blossom Crochet yay! Thanks!
My puppy ran off to find the cat 😂 I'm hopeless at winding tidy yarn balls.
Aaaw apologises to your little pup! 🐾♥️
❤❤
🧶🥰🌸
Lovely tutorial & love to hear your cat only Felix meows at me like that I'm always in bother my female cat doesn't really xx
They can be so funny and they all definitely have their own massive personalities 😅🌸🐾
I don't know if anyone can help, but has Marriner Yarns gone bust?? Need more wool for a project and website just says under maintenance for days??
Yeah, sadly they are no longer in business. I must say, they’re a big miss in the yarn world.
@Rita X oh that is such a shame!! Just finished a throw I made with their wool. Was lovely to work with. Thanks for letting me know xx
I wind mine with the starting tail hanging out so I have the pull coming from the inside. This way the ball doesn’t move all over the place as I pull the yarn out. If you do this, don’t do the figure eight in beginning because it will tangle the yarn.
