 Step 1
Grasp tail of yarn. |
 Step 2
Begin wrapping yarn around thumb and pinky in a figure-8 motion. |
 Step 3
Continue with this until you’ve worked up a small section of the yarn (about an inch thick on your fingers). |
 Step 4
Firmly grasp the wraps at the crossing of the “8.” |
 Step 5
Fold the figure-8 down on itself and pinch it closed. |
 Step 6
Begin wrapping the yarn loosely, rotating as needed. In the beginning, wrap the yarn over your fingers—this will help keep the center from packing down and becoming too tight. |
 Step 7
Pull from the center and go! |
