How To Hand-Wind A Center-Pull Ball or Bobbin

The easiest way to keep your scrap yarn under control! Also called a "bobbin," this technique can be used in Intarsia knitting to keep your colors separate.

All of your videos make me feel like there isn't a knitting project out there that I can't conquer. Thank you.

Hey Liat - You are FABULOUS! I enjoy and learn SO much from your videos. Bobbin/Center Pull ball, potato/patahto, tomato/tamahto - what difference as long as learning is happening!!!!

@natalieford Thanks for correcting me! Please post a link to a video of the center-pull ball! I'd love to see it.

I'm watching this because of copyright law. I'm knitting a book and wasn't sure, for E. Zimmerman shows this in one of her videos. Meg Swanson, her daughter, still holds the rights to the videos, no doubt. I'm a little afraid to add this to my book because of it, although there are numerous videos now on youtube. I'm a 55 year knitter and one comment: I make my bobbins MUCH bigger than this. You can also go down your fingers instead of on top of each other. I only use these for color knitting. Thanks though for the video!
