Do you hate to join a new color or new ball of [tag]yarn[/tag] and tie a knot in your project? [tag]Jean Greenhowe Designs[/tag] offers you an alternative. [tag]Joining yarn[/tag] with this method involves piercing the yarn with a darning needle and pulling the new ball through the old ball stitches at the end of a row. With this darning needle method there are no knots to untie and the join is smooth, almost invisible.
According to Jean “It takes a wee bit of practice to pierce right through the centres of the A loop and the B yarn strands but it does work beautifully. It is probably the best and most effective joining-on method in the history of knitting. You’ll soon wonder how you managed without it!”
