subscribeAfter redoing all my math and measurements earlier today, I decided to cast on. The long tail cast on is the only one I know. It's also the one I'm using for the cat sweater. Well, the yarn and I had a disagreement. It started unwinding on me as I cast it on. It got to the point where I had over 160 stitches on and I had to rip it all out and start over because my yarn was so twisted.
I'm right-handed and learned to do the long tail cast on with the needle in my right hand and the yarn in my left. As I was casting on, I was untwisting the yarn coming off the ball.
I tried rewinding my yarn into a hand-wound ball (I had the yarn store ball it for me when I bought it). This did not help. Winding into another ball with the other end of the yarn loose didn't help either. I spent a long time trying to find a solution on Google and finally came across this explanation from True Blue Fiber Friends. (Thank you, True Blue Fiber Friends, for having the answer!)
The solution was to do the long tail cast on with the needle in my left hand and the yarn in my right. I'm still twisting the yarn, but not as badly and I'm twisting it in the right direction. So, if you happen to unwind your yarn while casting on, try switching hands!
Now, since I had so much trouble finding a solution with my GoogleFu, I'm going to list all the keywords I used so that hopefully, other confused knitters have an easier time finding an answer: How to fix untwisting yarn, how to fix unraveling yarn, fixing untwisting yarn, fixing unraveling yarn, casting on untwisting yarn, and casting on unraveling yarn.
