What is a clever way to keep my balls of hemp/twine from unraveling in my drawer and tangling in everything?

Question

And please don't say keep them some other place besides a drawer. It's the only space I have for them.

Any ideas or suggestions please! I'll consider anything really.

Thanks!

Answer 1

I use sandwich baggies for containing many of my crafts & tools. Reusable and clear enough to see what's in them.

Answer 2

Ziplock bags are good, they come in all sizes. Or, you could use socks or knee-high hosiery.

Answer 3

Try this- I do this to keep my bobbins from tangling-

Get a needle big enough to thread the end of your twine through, or use a piece of wire.

Run the end of your twine a couple times under some of the wraps.

Leave a little of the end sticking out so that you can find it.

I've never had a problem doing this to any of my thread spools, try it on your twine.

Answer 4

Small containers with holes for the end of the string.  Or just a bit of masking tape over the end of the ball.

Answer 5

you know those little mesh bags that fruits come in? Put your balls of yarns and twines in them. It keeps my wools from getting all over the place.
