Keeping the bounce in your Yarn

Keeping the Bounciness in Your Yarn:

If you must ball your yarn to knit or crochet, do it loosely. If you stretch the yarn and it stays that way, it will become stringy and lose its loftiness and bounce. This will in turn create a harsh feel to the final product. Just let the yarn slip through your finger without pulling while you are balling your yarn.
