Yarn matters. I cannot stress enough that choosing the right type of yarn to work with is also crucial. Of course, some yarns split more than others but this is common (and normal for the best of our yarn friends) in yarn with a smoother/ slippery texture. If you are new to knitting or crocheting, try not to use yarn slippery as silk. Opt for something that has a little more body, and choose a yarn that is slightly thicker with some texture. This type of yarn while less likely to split will make your experience much more enjoyable

Prior to beginning a new ball of yarn, it is an excellent idea to examine it for any knots or snags. Yarn splitting while you're working can be a direct result of knots and snags. If there are any knots you see when you start unraveling take those out first. Just that simple step can help guarantee problems don't happen- and save your yarn from splitting while you are working with it.
