■How to handle skeins■
The skein has a beginning and an end. First, find the beginning and the end. The one that pulls lightly and the thread comes out smoothly is the beginning. The one that pulls lightly and gets entangled is the end. If you set the beginning to the top, the thread can be pulled out smoothly.
