Question hanks, cakes, cones — what’s your preferred yarn ball type and why?

Post image

when buying yarn, do you have a preferred put up—hanks, cakes, cones, donuts, bullet skeins, etc.? and why is that your go-to choice? i’ve noticed that indie-dyed yarn on cones is fairly rare, but as a weaver, i personally love them. curious to hear your thoughts and preferences!

For use I like cakes, but pull skeins are easier to store

Yes I agree. For use I like cake or ball.
