It is obvious that no kind of yarn will work as an arrow. It is most likely any type of yarn would not be strong enough to serve as the string for a bow. If you are lucky, and do not have an enormous amount of tension on the bow, the yarn might hold up for a few shots, but it certainly would not last very long. Unless, of course, you use yarn made from nylon or some other strong material. As an emergency, I have used dental floss to string a bow. It lasted for the time I needed it, but it has started to fray in several locations because of the strain.
