A Couple of Thoughts on Weaving with Yarn

Sometimes when you pull the yarn through a number of holes in the mesh, the yarn will wind around itself and make a knot.

 
Hopefully, you understand that the proper way to deal with this is to stop pulling and work the knot loose.
 
 
The other thing that might help you as you weave is to know that sometimes - at least when I weave - the yarn untwists.  If this happens to you, figure out which way to twist the needle and give it a couple of turns to tighten up the yarn.  In my case, I have to turn it clockwise.
 
Thanks for visiting with me.
