III.Winding a Center Pull Ball

When your yarn is completely dry, pull out an empty toilet paper tube and cut a 1 inch slit in one end, place about 3 inches of yarn in the slit and begin to wind your yarn around the roll, in a diagonal line, from bottom to top, while slowly turning the roll away from you. This could take a bit too but will give you a very easy to use center pull ball when you are finished. When all the yarn is wound, tuck in the last end and slowly pull out the cardboard tube with the first bit of yarn. This will be your working yarn. Ta da!
