When a pattern calls for "yarn held double throughout," and your yarn is in skein form, try this technique for winding out a perfect double-stranded bali. Place the opened skein around a chair. Snip off the ties binding the fiber. Find both ends of the skein (they will likely be tied together) and hołd together. Wrap into a bali by pulling from each end simultaneously. One strand will puli from the left, one will puli from the right, but both will come together if you wrap slowly and patiently. One of the great benefits of this technique is your yarn will be divided perfectly in half.
