   Should I buy a skein of yarn?

   • I highly advise beginning crocheters and knitters to purchase a skein of yarn instead of a cake of yarn or a cone of yarn because it's easier to work with it. You won't need to unroll and re-roll your yarn repeatedly while using it. You can also easily find the yarn end and start working.
