Tatūnga me te Whakaritenga
Before beginning your project, it is recommended to prepare the yarn to prevent tangles and ensure smooth crafting.
- Inspect the Skein: Gently unwrap the label and inspect the yarn for any visible knots or breaks.
- Locate Yarn Ends: Find both the inner and outer ends of the yarn. For center-pull skeins, gently pull the inner end to start.
- Winding (Optional): For larger projects or to prevent tangling, consider winding the skein into a ball or cake using a yarn winder.
- Check Gauge: Before starting your main project, create a small swatch to check your gauge with your chosen needles or hook. This ensures your finished item will match the intended size.

- Yarn Tangling: If the yarn tangles while working, try pulling from the outside of the skein or winding it into a cake before use. Ensure your working area is clear.
- Yarn Splitting: If your needle or hook is splitting the yarn, try adjusting your tension or using a needle/hook with a blunter tip.
