Hand tied...I see this term all the time but not quite sure what it means?

Basically, hand-tied yarn refers to yarn that’s been carefully wound into a neat little bundle by hand, usually tied off with a small piece of the same yarn to keep everything tidy and in place.
Think of it like a little yarn hug, holding everything together so it doesn’t get all tangled and wild before you start your project. It’s different from those big machine-wound cakes or balls you see at the store because someone took the time (and love!) to make sure the yarn stays organized and easy to work with.
Sometimes hand-tied yarn comes from smaller, artisanal dyers or spinners who want to present their yarn with a personal touch. It also makes it easier to pull from the center or the outside without a mess—something every crafter appreciates, especially if you’ve ever wrestled with a knotty ball that seems to have a mind of its own!
So, in short, hand-tied yarn is just yarn that’s been lovingly and carefully bundled by hand, ready to make your next project a breeze. And I have to say, there’s something special about working with yarn that’s been treated with that kind of care—it’s like the yarn’s already giving you a little cuddle.

You might also look up magic ball of yarn, too. This is when you join all your loose ends randomly or in some scheme to create totally unique fabric.  Details Reply Post time 2015-10-7 00:41

Oh dear! Sounds like someone has come up with an expensive way to use up all their odd (short) bits of yarn. (Yawn!) Cant find a yawning smiley!
