Default Noro Kureyon and felting


I'm knitting the Booga Bag using Noro Kureyon yarn. I'm noticing it
twisting as it comes off the ball. Has anyone else experienced this?
Is it a good idea to untwist the kinks, or should I just leave them?

thanks, Linda in B.C., Canada

I just leave it if your going to felt it anyways.
I am using Noro Kureyon in a lucy bag right now and am loving the way
it knits up.

Default Noro Kureyon and felting

Hi Linda: I have used the Kureyon but to knit socks with so I
untwisted it whenever it started to get like that. For a felted bag,
I don't thing it would make too much difference unless the kinks
twisted up really badly and interfered with the knitting by making
those icky knots.

Hi Marie,

Thanks for the info. I've never come across yarn twisting so much
like the Noro Kureyon does, but I don't usually use pure wool, so
figured it had something to do with the process used on the wool and
the dyeing.

thanks...Linda
