  • I wanted to show you all how I change my colors to avoid weaving in ends. This makes my blanket-making life SO much easier! I have never had a knot come undone/be reported undone by a client. Make sure you test all your knots before moving on to make sure they don't come apart. You want to be sure the finished product holds up safely for your intended recipient! :)
    I have the link to the person who I adapted my method from as well as my original video with an additional demonstration of how to make the knot if this isn't clear enough.

    Okay fellow crocheters. THIS is the best crochet hack I have ever seen! I will play around with it until I perfect it and will use this every time I have to change colors here on out. I have seen it done but NOT this way. Thanks so much for sharing with with me! ❤😊

    Yarn tails are work of the devil. I’d rather have dental work than weave them in. THANK YOU SO MUCH!! I’ve been crocheting for over 50 years and this is the most helpful tip I’ve ever learned. You ROCK!

    • @voyager9028
      @voyager9028 3 года назад +2

      If you're changing color after each row, it's simpler to just drop the old yarn and pick up the new one. No knots and no cutting of the yarn!

I always wondered if it would make that big a difference other than the tension? Sometimes when I only have a bit of yarn I wonder if I should try it?

    Weaving in ends & swapping between colors has been one of the banes of my existence. This seems like a really great method & I’m excited to try it! I’m just wondering if you do ever have issues with the knots coming undone & what you could do if that happens. Seems like without any extra tail to work with, you’d be sort of screwed if the knots loosened.

    • @kellsbells69666
      @kellsbells69666  4 года назад +1

      I've never personally had any knots come our or had any reports of knots coming out. If it is going to work it's way out, it should do so with your couple of tugs. The only yarn I can think of that may be difficult to secure would be a silky or slippery yarn.

I have been trying it for over an hour and 47 knots, so far, and have only had one that didn't pull out immediately. I would love to get some suggestions on what I might be doing wrong. I have my laptop on my lap and go step by step with you. It is so frustrating. Grrrr. Any suggestions why my knots pull out like that.

      @kellsbells69666  3 года назад

      My best suggestion is just to weave your ends back and forth to secure. When you have little itty bitty bits coming out you can usually snip off the tiny bits just make sure you don't snip snip snip snip until it's too short

      @kellsbells69666  6 лет назад

      Abby Flores I don't see why not, but you would have to test how hard you can pull before snapping the yarn... or maybe it is too slippery. Let us know if you try!

    Do you think this would work for knitting too?

    • @kellsbells69666
      @kellsbells69666  6 лет назад +1

      Great question! The join would likely be more obvious since knitting typically creates a much thinner fabric. I am not sure how many needle wraps it would take to line it up but next time I am knitting, I'll test it out.

    • @annwithaplan9766
      @annwithaplan9766 6 лет назад +1

      I use that method in both crochet and knitting, but like she said in another reply, you have to make sure you don't snap the yarn when pulling too tight. Some yarns aren't as strong as others. I've tried it with wool yarn and it will break if pulled too hard.
