Hi again, I have now spent *hours* untangling this *%&$^! skein of 120/2 silk yarn and managed to save maybe 25 g. If I ever buy this yarn again, I'm buying it in the form where it's already wound on a cone.
The biggest problem is that I can't find the right end to unwind. After some untangling, some easy winding, some cursing, I have probably 50+ g left in the hank with at least EIGHT ends dangling (there are a lot of knots in the skein, and many have come undone and left little strands here and there). None are the correct one - where I can easily begin unwinding. I spread the strands looking for loose ends, when I find one, I pull it to see if it'll unwind. Sometimes it will. Most times it won't. I've had it with this yarn. So... trying out that whole lemons and lemonade thing, can I cut it up into 2-3 inch pieces, dye it, and card it into wool like the sari silk stuff I'm seeing everywhere? Any reason that shouldn't work?
