Cutting
and Strand Preparation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
When
several strands of the same length are required to complete a project, don't
cut them one by one, but cut multiple strands together from the hank. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After
the first cut has been made from the hank, bunch the strands together with an
elastic band nice and tight. If the strands are still curly and not straight,
spray them with some water and let them dry. This will help straightening the
strands for further measured cuts. |

Hold
firmly with your thumb the area you need to cut, and let the other end held
with an elastic band fall freely. Before cutting, make sure you have the correct
length.
Hold the loose ends together with your hand until you can bunch them together
nice and tight with an elastic band. |

If
your cutting a hank of 4/ply, it will be easier and faster if you breakdown
the hank (or just the piece you need to cut) in 1 meter strands, and than cut
groups of 5 pieces one at a time. |
