- safety pins
- slip knots in scrap bits of yarn

Yarn bobbins
SKINT:
- those little tabs that close up bread bags work great for thin yarns
- a Google search for 'make yarn butterfly' will yield tutorials for how to hand-wind good bobbins
MINT: I found these sweet animal-shaped wooden yarn bobbins: etsy.com/ca/listing/592…
