What’s yarn barf? How can I be a knitter of over 10 years and know not what you speak of?

When you pull from the center of the skein or yarn ball and the yarn is a bit tangled, so you have to pull harder and a slightly tangled small bunch comes out all at once. It’s usually easily untangled & you can carry on knitting. It happens a lot when you’re trying to find the end to get started and at the very beginning of the skein/ball.

Ta da! Now you have a word for that thing! And since we’re talking about barf, lol, clown barf is usually a variegated yarn with lots of bright colors, but I’ve heard people call bright monochromes (e.g., neon pink) clown barf. I think that covers all the knitting barf, lol!
