This is just awesome. I started crocheting at 9 years old. Back then it was just granny squares, doilies and afghans. I'm 63 years old and have learned so many new stitches and styles. I mean this from the bottom to the top of my heart....you young people are just so AMAZINGLY AWESOME and FANTASTIC! The saying; " never to old to learn" well this old girl have picked up my hook and have began doing what I love. Thank you ALL for sharing your crafts. 😊❤
Like you I've decided to start again at 65. I taught myself at 30 with my second child and went crazy for several years. I even started a side hustle for a while. But about ten years ago I stopped Now that I'm retired in thinking of picking it up again and this and any other tips will definitely help .
THAT'S SO COOL. I just tried it and it worked. It does leave a little hard knot that won't be suitable for all projects, but it'll work for a lot of things, especially a continuous ball of yarn.
This looks so easy! I always square knot and weave, but this would save time AND yarn. I'm definitely going to try it next time I need to join. Thank you!!!
I was just thinking it looks rather bulky but not ends to thread in. Personally I prefer the Russian join or the fisherman's knot. The former involves threading ends through the working yarn as you join but the fisherman's knit can be threaded in after. I've seen videos cutting ends off short but I'd never do that.
@@suzannehaney966I don’t think this knot is for hiding ends; I’m pretty sure this knot is meant to join two different types of yarn together, for a pattern that requires more than one color/type of yarn.
I found this video like a week ago and just finished a scrap blanket with this joining method, just had to come back and say thank you for sharing this - it's thanks to you I only have two ends to weave in! 😂
This is very neat and neatly explained, very efficient and love how it locks and there's nothing to sow in. Definitely gonna try it!! Thanks a lot for sharing ❤
Thank you for this info! I've been crocheting (and a bit of knitting) since i was young (I'm 64) and as I always say "we're never too old to learn something new".
I tried joining different thickness of yarns and it worked very well in every case. No need to keep the touched ends of the yarns short because after making the knot , giving a good tug whatever is showing can be trimmed carefully. I felt like mentioning it because I struggled with keeping the ends short and that became a tricky part. I hope it helps others too.😊
Yes, it’s useless on thinner yarns as well. I gave up on these variations of magic knots and started using the weaving the two ends together method which leaves no knot and only takes a couple of minutes to do.
@@brendabollig6856I have watched this 100 times and I still can but get it. My knot is in the middle somehow looking like I startled with 4 when I only started with 2 🤦♀️. No idea what I’m doing wrong!
@@brendabollig6856 Perhaps you're right. I think the pause is when she fixed her camera to bring everything into focus. Instead of the closest thing only. That's just my opinion of course. Yours is valid too. Be safe, be strong & remember to Love Yourself, so that you may best love others. 🙏💪💜
I love this knot. Saves a lot of time and trouble, especially when you have a lot of color changes. When you get the trick of putting it in the right spot it's perfect.
🎉 thank you for this trick it's priceless. And it doesn't even have to be used for yarn it can be used for other things I'm sure I'm going to try it with my cords different cords❤
This looks totally easy, awesome, and secure, but my anxiety said, "NOPE, that's unravelling as soon as your project is done!" Why can't my brain just hush for once and let me try something new? 😭🤣
If it helps, this is a variant of a sheet bend (also known as a wearer's knot), which is already one of the best knots for joining two bits of cord. Aside from a nifty way to minimize the length of leftover thread, this doubles up the wraps and tucks one of the ends back under those wraps. This is probably done to make all the ends come out the same direction (super important for not catching), but it also makes it even less likely for that end to work free. So it's kind of overkill 😅 Having this kind of background info usually helps my anxiety about relying on something new, and I hope it's useful to you
Beautiful hidden knot!! I have another one I tried too. Very helpful suggestion. I've been crocheting for 50 years. Taught myself from my great grandmother's "Coat's and Clark" book at 11 years old. Best lessons I've ever given to myself!! ❤ Thank you 😊
😲🤯😃🙆♀️ Yo! This is fantastic! I don't have any projects right now, but I'm going to get out some yarn and try this out several times today so I never forget it.
Correct. They’re very useful to know. I learned in a club called Pathfinders in church. The square knot, slip knot, etc. there is several but unfortunately only those two readily come to mind🤷🏽♀️
@@wakemeupwhenicareI also learned a bowline in Pathfinders (we did a mountaineering course). Goodness! I just realized that was nearly 60 years ago; I must be getting old or something.
Oh we are the pathfinders strong, the servants of God are we...I was a Pathfinder as well. Loved it!! try to remember as much of the things that we were taught.@@margretrosenberg420
@A Crafty Concept Hi there... I'm no stranger to tricky knots and stitches but.... I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The left side (in your video that would be the light green yarn) just slips through. And the yarn on the right side (your oat coloured yarn) ends up in a twisted knot... I think it must be magic LOL 🤣 I must have tried 20 times this afternoon... "Help" cried one (crochet) hooker to the other 🤣... Help please 🙏
That made sense to me! The one where you thread a needle and work one piece of yarn through the other always seemed like to much w for me. I will try this! ❤

And just like that, my entire crochet game has changed.

Right? I’m kind of thrilled right now!🤩

I like the way you take time to let us see what you are doing with each move.👍
Avoid in the foot of socks as it can be uncomfortable and it can be hard to make sure it ends up on the wrong side of your work.

what...
You feel the knot even on a cap
Filming skills + hand tutorials skill = 10/10 video
Thank ya!!
It doesn't hold tight if the string is silky or mercerised. It's great with rough strings.

I don't see how it could possibly work since the green yarn is just being folded over once. How is that ever going to be secure?
I've still not got it to work for me. So it's back to my old way of joining/invisible without any knots
Beautiful and simple. Thanks for this video. Came at the right time
