How to make a single ball yarn case.

A yarn case is a container used to hold a round ball of yarn from rolling away when you are knitting your project. I have a 6 ball yarn case and it is extremely useful but not not always

You will need:

Margarine container (small, medium or large depending on size), clean

Or peanut container, clean

Scissor

Masking tape

decorative supplies-stickers, decorative paper, glitter, glue etc...

Step one: 

Take the top and make a slit going towards the center. This will allow yarn to be slotted in. Cut a hole in the middle of the top.

Step two:

Run tape along the edge of the slit and hole. This will prevent snagging the yarn when it is being used.

Step three: Optional

Decorate container.

Step four:

Place yarn in container. Pull tail through slit and into hole. 

Step five:

Start project. Happy knitting!
