I'll let you know what I find. I just finished an afghan with Bernat yarn and it didn't bother me but this stuff I'm using now is not as soft so maybe that's the problem also. Trying to use up my yarn stash so didn't want to buy new stuff yet!
Try BandAid brand Waterproof Tough Strips. I am a hairdresser and they stay on throughout the day with repeated shampoos, hair gels ets. Also, they are very smooth and the yarn should slide over it very easily.
