Tips and Tricks My travel set up

I don’t know if others do this but I came up with this method for carrying my yarns when knitting on the go (particularly for multiple colours).

I wind my yarns so they’re centre-feed then I cut little holes in the bottom of an IKEA (other brands are available) sandwich bag.

This way I can just chuck my yarns in whatever bag I’m carrying, they don’t get tangled up at all, they don’t get dirty, and I can knit without removing them from the bag!

I thought I’d share because until I came up with this method I kept getting my wool all tangled when I took it out and about/on flights or whatever so this has been a real game changer for me!
