Thanks so much for the great demo! I thought I had this figured out, but the knot would come out if I pulled too tight. Taking those little fluffy ends, folding them back over only the last pass of yarn and holding them there has changed everything and now my knots don't come undone! Great job!
I rarely knit anymore but, I crochet alot and I cant tell you how happy I was to find this! Before this I would rarely crochet anything with multiple colors because of my ends would always come out! So I just stopped crocheting anything that was in more than 3 colors. Now I have learned this little trick and I am totally in love! I started a rainbow blanket! I feel more confident that my gift will not come undone in the wash. When the yarn gurus teach us things like the no ends knot or tips we have never heard of before, its giving you a gift as well, when it changes the way you do things you couldn't do before, its priceless! Thank you!
Same here. My sister and I sat together yesterday afternoon and practiced about 100 knots and she yelped with joy every.single.time. Even the 100th!! It's so much fun and such a super trick!
Omg thank you! I spent so much time watching tutorials without never being able to make this damn knot! I got it right of the bat thanks to your explanations! Thank you so much!
I couldn't quite see the last wrap. The one before you tuck the ends under. I'm watching on my phone so if it's not close up I'm out of luck. 😂 This looks like a great way to join the yarns. I hope I can figure it out. 👏🏻 Thanks so much.
Thank you so much Chris for your very clear and informative information. It was good to know which was the new yarn. I will be joining really thick yarns together, and then knitting two balls of yarn together at the same time...so this new idea,for me, is going to be a great boon. Thank you!
Super easy as she said, and I just did it on a real project with a mohair yarn so it will NEVER show on this cowl. COOL! I've been knitting for over 50 years and I am always happy to learn something new.
Thank you. I’ve been trying to master this for quite awhile and the last part would leave me with a knot with a big loop stuck in it. So, your clear explanation of the last lil part of folding just over the last line helped me to capture it! Came out perfectly the first try! Thank you.
Omg ive had to watch several dif videos over the years to get this knot. Yours was the first time i got it on the first attempt and made way more sense. Thank you!!!❤
Watched 3 different videos on how to do this. This the best one BY FAR! Only knot that, when I REALLY tested it, didn't break. Also super easy to follow and really well explained. Only advise is to full screen the video and watch it on a laptop, PC or TV, not a mobile. Some fiddly bits that can be a bit hard to see otherwise.
This is the clearest instructions I have seen on this knot, and I can finally make this knot and no ends to weave in. Yeah! Thank you so much. The closeup shot really helped.
Love, love, love this knot, almost as much as the knots my late father taught me.! Thank you for making this very clear video on how to do this knot. I have seen other videos on this same knot but they're not nearly as easy to follow as your video is. Thanks again! :)
I've been searching for a solution to multiple color changes when weaving on a frame loom using the continuous strand method, and, hooray! I found this wonderful video and method. Took a bit of practice, and the wrong end of a small crochet hook to tuck in the ends, but I've got it now, and I'm ready to tackle those tricky plaids. Thank you, Chris!
I was not sure this was going to work then I tried it and worked awesome, I was confused at first and took me 3 times to do it but it worked perfectly. Thank you so much
I learned about this Magic Knot nearly a year ago, and have been trying variations on it that I've found around the internet ever since. Yours gives a slightly different twist from others I've seen. The only problem is, I haven't been able to get it to actually WORK - not ONCE. On the odd occasion when the knot actually does hold - which isn't often - I also end up with an extra loop that just won't pull tight. So much for invisible! I just wish I knew what I am doing wrong - it looks so simple! (I am a knitter with nearly 4 decades' experience, BTW - it's not as though I'm a novice!) I'll keep trying ... :(
I had the same problem until now. I had only gotten it to work once and not after that. Well, I realized I was doing it wrong. I finally got it to work this time.
@@eileenwolf995 That's what I usually do too - a square knot or an overhand knot, depending on the yarn and the positioning. Since I still can't get this knot to work 99.5% of the time.
I believe it's the same as Weaver's Knot or Magic Knot, just held differently. Those might be easier to follow, as they start on a flat surface. I've used it on socks with a gazillion ends.
This is amazing! I had to try it twice the first time that I did it but it works great, I love it. Can it be used on chunky yarn (like Bernat blanket yarn)?
😯wowwww.. it took watchin many many vids.. before I understood.. hów tae do it inda right way.. I watched your vid twice & I can do it by myself.. thank you very much for showin it in easy understandable way 🙏🌹😌
This worked for me...I am using a fuzzy type yarn this go round and you cannot see where my knot fell! I do have to watch this video a lot as I cannot seem to remember exactly how to wrap my yarn...just me...😀..Thanks so much...
hi, tried 5x and the 'new' yarn stops pulling and I'm left with a little loop. when I pull on that the knot winds up on one piece of yarn only. when you 'tuck' the tails it is against your thumb, right?
That was happening to me as well and I thought may be it was just because I was trying to do it with dishcloth cotton; but try folding the ends just over the last pass/loop of yarn and then only holding onto the ONLY ends when you pull your knot taught. I kept trying to hold onto the yarn itself and it wouldn't ever finish properly.
Thank you so much. I'm doing a C2C blanket at the moment and there is heaps of colour changes. I've only done not even a quarter of it and I'm already sick of sewing in ends or having them hanging everywhere. This will be so helpful.
Enjoyed your video tutorial, thank you. How would you join a different colour of yarn at the beginning of a row as in knitting stripes on the flat? TIA

Have you sussed the technique of changing colour before the last step of the previous stitch? It gives a much neater border between the colours.
Took less than a minute to figure out how to do it and the result was probably more mindblowing than it should have been, haha. Thank you so much!

Wow 😯 that is my “go to” knot from now on. I also love the Russian Knot….super nice with any yarn 🧶
This works! Thank you. I have seen this video a while back, and have been doing this knot ever since. the knots do not come undone in the wash!
Omg thank you! I spent so much time watching tutorials without never being able to make this damn knot! I got it right of the bat thanks to your explanations! Thank you so much!

Yes its super easy and effective. Good for darning in ends when left with short ends that need to be lengthened. Thank you so much.

I can’t believe it. “I” actually did it!
Thank you! Easy peasy!
This is the best knot video.
Thank you for clear concise instructions.
Thank you SO much! I've seen this done several times, but couldn't quite get the hang of it. You made it easy. SO thankful!
Super easy as she said, and I just did it on a real project with a mohair yarn so it will NEVER show on this cowl. COOL! I've been knitting for over 50 years and I am always happy to learn something new.
Thank you! Watched some other videos on how to accomplish this but kept getting a very messy knot. Placement of that 2nd loop was the answer.

The Russian join is my favourite which leaves no tuft and an even tinier knot.
Omg ive had to watch several dif videos over the years to get this knot. Yours was the first time i got it on the first attempt and made way more sense. Thank you!!!❤
My go to magic knot method. I only wrap once over the thumb and once u see. Works perfectly. Thank you!!
Love it!! I found tucking ends in so time consuming so I’m so glad I found this vid🎉🎉❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻

This was amazing! I recently started crocheting and the thought alone of joining yarn was stressing me out. This totally worked! Thank you so much!
Great tutorial Cris shows perfectly how to join yarn. Thanks for sharing. I am from México 🇲🇽
Thank you!!
Fabulous.. I've needed this knot many times and have only just come across it..
Its very nice. Thank you
Ahhhh! Thank you!
Love, love, love this knot, almost as much as the knots my late father taught me.! Thank you for making this very clear video on how to do this knot. I have seen other videos on this same knot but they're not nearly as easy to follow as your video is. Thanks again! :)
Now you've got me curious. What knits did your father teach you?
Thank you so much!!!!
This is the one and only way I join my yarn together
Thank you so much for your help ❤😊
Just found this post a few days ago. It took 4 or 5 tries, but I finally got it. 🎉
Thanks for sharing
Thanks again
Superb thanks for sharing 🎉❤
Thank you
I got it,thank u😊
Is there any way you can measure where to do the join so the color change will be where you want it to be?
Used this on my first baby blanket worked great
You made my life so much easier! Yay,thank you for helping me get this! Kudos to you on a job well done, it was greatly appreciated.
Wooow... the third or fourth video on this and this was the one for me. Finally got it. Thank you
Thanks so much for sharing 🤗 My late mother used to use this method, but I just couldn't remember how she did it. Gosh, just what I was looking for!!!
Thank you so, so much. It worked PERFECTLY. First try. I am so happy I watched your video.
I have watched two other videos...you make it so easy and simple!!! Thanks!!

No problem at all - I was so excited to share it with you all once I discovered it! ~Chris
It took me a few tries but I was able to finally do it. This is an amazing tip thank you!
Holy shit it worked. This is awesome!
Spectacular
Thank you! Solved my problem in two seconds!
Love your method of joining yarn. I tried while watching your RUclips video very easy and quick. That’s what I looking for Thank you for sharing
Perfect little slip know first tug, slipped right out, and yes I did it correctly.
This is life changing!!!! Thank you!!!!
We thought so too! Magical!
I was looking for the knot for years😊
WOW!!! Super easy to learn and works great..Thank you
I was not sure this was going to work then I tried it and worked awesome, I was confused at first and took me 3 times to do it but it worked perfectly. Thank you so much
Thank you! Amazing! I love it!
Thanks ever so much for this, because i make a lot of blankets and sewing in those ends i hate! xxx
Very clear explanation and visual
Been trying to do this for ages sometimes it worked sometimes not but I now know where I was going wrong, thank you for this tutorial.
This is fantastic! I hate weaving ends in. Thank you!
Thank you for this, I hate the knotted ends. Got on 2nd try. Now off to make a blanket and put to use.
Thank you!!!! You have saved me so much time!
Very smart.
Wow, thanks.

I had the same problem until now. I had only gotten it to work once and not after that. Well, I realized I was doing it wrong. I finally got it to work this time.
I have also only had this work once, and never again. I did it really slowly, with the video, Made sure I was holding correctly, etc. No luck. 😑😞
I tie a 'sailor's knot' or what we learned in Girl Scouts, a SQUARE KNOT! RIGHT OVER LEFT AND THEN LEFT OVER RIGHT... easy peasy.....

I got it after only 2 tries. TY so much!
I love this knot... it's all I use
Love it!!!! Thank you!
That was a really cool way to make that knot! Thanks 😊
😯wowwww.. it took watchin many many vids.. before I understood.. hów tae do it inda right way.. I watched your vid twice & I can do it by myself.. thank you very much for showin it in easy understandable way 🙏🌹😌
Thanks for this tutorial. I absolutely love it! Keep them coming. ❤
Amazing!! Can’t wait to try this out
Thank you. I will work on that. Very interesting.
This is a great knot. Thanks!
WoW... I did it... Thanks so much 😍
Brilliant . Thank you.
Wow…. This is wonderful.. thank you so much
This worked for me...I am using a fuzzy type yarn this go round and you cannot see where my knot fell! I do have to watch this video a lot as I cannot seem to remember exactly how to wrap my yarn...just me...😀..Thanks so much...
Excellent. Thank you!
Thanks for the demo
Awesome tutorial...thank you!!!
Would this work with silky DK yarn ie; king cole fjord . I tried magic knot and it came undone, even though I pulled tight.
Perfect. Thank you.

Great idea!!! I have to try this for sure
Thanks soooooooo much I love this! so much easier then some of the other methods I have learned.
Super idea thanks

Beautiful, works great. Thanks
O m g. Mind blown!

Thanks so much, I was playing yarn chicken and I lost but this saved me!
I love it!!
Hi and thanks for the tutorial. Does this method work on any material? Will acrylic yarn get undone?
Beautiful !

Worked great thanks!!
Love this idea! Thanks for sharing!! :)
