Abstract
The apparatus includes a control between the electromagnetic tension control and the yarn supply package to prevent the yarn coming off the package from rotating in a full balloon path and consequently prevent entanglement of the yarn in the yarn guides to a yarn consuming machine. The balloon control basically employs a bar member under which the yarn passes as it is delivered to a yarn guide tube. The bar member prevents the yarn from rotating as it is taken off over-end from the yarn package thereby alleviating the possibility of yarn entanglement at the yarn tube.
