Troubleshooting

Yarn is tangling during use.

Ensure the ball is placed in a yarn bowl or a location where it can unwind smoothly without obstructions. Check your tension and needle size.

Difficulty in maintaining consistent tension.

Practice your tension on a small swatch before beginning your project to ensure a uniform look.
