I don't know why the TH-cam algorithm decided to recommend this to me today, but this is exactly the kind of beautiful sense I needed in this world to make the day better. Thank you 😊
Yaaay same here , so pleased to find this, I’ve just come back to crotchet & these tips are invaluable to help create really professional looking work .
I am 64 yrs old! My grandma taught me to crochet at 12 years old and I have been crocheting for 52 yrs! How have I never even heard of this join? I can not thank you enough for this 6 minute video that is an absolute game changer for me. It takes a bit of time, but a whole lot more fun than joining my way and then to weave in ends. Well worth doing it this way instead. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! You have literally taught an old dog a new trick. ❤
Wow, I have been crocheting since 2014 and I never saw such an easy way to join yarn together. I have always tied a knot and yes, I hated it. This will really help in my Amigurumi. Thanks so much, I always look for something that I haven't done. I always love learning something new. Thank you for sharing.
I'm 79 and my grandmommy taught me to crochet as soon as I could be trusted with the hook (which means I wouldn't lose it.) I have a friend from Ukraine, and neither of us had ever heard of this. (Not that she is talking to many Russians these days.)
Oh my god....its happened 😮...ITS FINALLY..HAPPENED!!! It took 56 different techniques of what people consider "invisibke joins" and three years....all to no avail....UNTIL NOW. I FINALLY CANE ACROSS THE ONLY "INVISIBLE JOIN" THAT IS ACTUALLY BOTH OF THOSE THINGS! One would assume, this would be a pretty simple and straigh forward task...but one would be wrong. Lol. Because three years of watching 56 other people do all kinds of wacky techniques in what at BEST could only be described as SUBPAR. 😂. I do realize I am making a very big deal out of this... and that is because it is... in all actuality.. A BIG FING DEAL!!!! So I had come to the comment section and just take a moment to tell the creator of this video. Just how much I appreciate this and to you I say thank you 🙏🏻At least a 100 times, which I will not make you all deal with seeing here.. so just know.. I've said it. Lol Thank you, thank you.. 🙏🏻etc. You have no idea how much this actually means to me. I think you just made my year. IM SO HAPPY, IM DAMN NEAR IN TEARS!!!! (Yes and laughter after) 😂!😭😭🤣IM ALL OVER THE PLACE !!!! OH THE IRONY...OF A KNOT...being what FINALLY led to my mental unraveling. 😂😂😂👏🏻😂Yeah thats actually hilarious.👏🏻👏🏻 😂 🤣
I don’t usually feel the need to comment on videos, but this way of tying ends together is so genius that I just had to. I’m currently working on an embroidery project and I thought that this would never work on embroidery thread, but it did and I’m so happy to not have to waste a ton of thread by restarting the whole project! thank you so much! ❤️❤️
60 years old & I've been crocheting for about 50 years...I've never heard of this & now I'm so excited to practice something new! I haven't been this excited to crochet since I mastered the Bullion Stitch 😁
My goodness, I learned this method from my aunt when I was 6years old. She had the patience to teach me to knit and crochet, simply to keep me out of mischief when visiting them on the farm. Thank you!
I've used the Russian join for years with boucle type yarns, but with a slight change. Rather than sewing the old yarn back through itself, I thread it into the new yarn, and the tail of the new yarn back into the old yarn. I think it gives a smoother finish and a less abrupt change in the yarn.
@@cristinadetwiler4036 yes, I always tug on it to make sure it's not going to come apart, plus I go about 2 inches on each side, so it's always worked well for me.
This is super nice! I'm working with a slightly thicker ply of yarn and I find that the typical double knot technique for adding yarn leaves a really noticeable bump even in the stitch, but this makes the transition so seamless. I'll definitely be using this technique again in the future! Thank you for sharing how to do it!
You just saved a project I'm working on! I had to join some yarn that would not hold any kind of knot at all. This was the only method that actually worked!
You just saved me with this technique. I am using a knitting machine making a sock and was about to the toe and came across a factory knot in the skein 😢 Firstly I never trust factory knots, secondly you don't want a knot in a sock. I hate darning in the ends with fingering weight sock yarn because my huge hands have a hard time with the tiny stitches. Now I had to use a small sharp tapestry needle to get into that fingering weight yarn, but it worked perfectly and it fed great through my Singer SK360 flatbed machine. Now to kitchner stitch the toe up and my wife has a new pair of wool socks!
A beginner knitter here and I couldn't stand the knots I had to do to combine different coloured threads of wool. This video was music to my ears and super satisfied that I came across this amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing tip!
I used the Russian join for the first time just now and figured out a trick for figuring out what side is the tail and what side is either going to the project at a glance. After you get the tail out of the center of the yarn and have the loop, you can tie a knot in the tail and either just leave the needle there (if you have another one you can use) or knot that end after you remove the needle. That way you know the end with with the knot weather it has the needle on it or not you know to cut there. My first attempt was successful, but I accidentally cut the piece going to my new ball instead of that tail, that's why I tried this and it made it so much easier to tell which is which. I had this problem because I had a bit longer tails, and the ball was down to my side so I wasn't completely sure which was which.
I LOVE THIS! I hate weaving ends. This technique might take a little more time than weaving in ends, but it is so much more clean! Great way to change colors. Such a firm division, with no mixing of colors.
I've been crocheting for about 50 years and I've never seen this until recently. It may take a little time to join but it comes out so neatly and you don't have to weave in the yarn. That's the best thing about it.
I really didn’t think this would work on the yarn I’m currently using but it did! It’s a super fine (1) weight and it’s a 75% merino wool and 25% nylon blend. It worked beautifully. Thank you for making this easy to understand and follow.
You are correct! I tried to place it right but was joining black to orange.. did it a wee too far down, so too much orange. I am just going to use a sharpie to color the little dot of orange, black. 🤣
Wow, thank you so much! I have been crocheting for over 26 years, and I have never seen this method before. This is so game-changing! Thank you, thank you, thank you! 🎉🎉🎉
This is INGENIOUS. 🤯 It's been a minute since I've worked with yarn but this concept is so interesting and I love that it uses the properties of the yarn itself to tie them together!
I've watched a few videos on the Russian join and it seemed complicated so I never tried it but your video actually makes it seem easier. I can't wait to try it. Thanks!
I am looking forward to trying this for the first time to repair a couple of afghans I made long ago that were put away because they had come “undone”! This should be just the thing to repair them and get them back to being used!
This is some sorcery!! Lol thank you for sharing this!! I can’t believe this is not used more often! First time I’ve ever come across it in my 15 years of crocheting, too!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!❤
This is amazing! Beginner-friendly! After watching so many methods and ending up weird or ugly... This is not the easiest way to join yarns together but definitely the best, it's neat, pretty, seamless outlook. Thank you so much!🤩
TH-cam finally grants me Jewel 💎 thank you for this video! I’ve been doing the Russian join wrong for years hating how it looked. I’ll be using this method for sure moving forward. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I’ve been joining with a spit slice, but the yarn I’m working with right now is 40% cotton so I can’t do my typical join. I love this and am so glad I can still have seamless joins with no tails to weave. Thank you so much!
I have been using the Russian join since I learned it a couple of years ago and then I had a brilliant idea of combining both the Russian and the spit (aha!!) join. That join isn't going anywhere!!!
I cant tell you how happy this video made me. I hate the knots even the "invisible" versions and this is not only a perfect result but also a beautiful way to do it. Love your voice and explaining too!
Decades playing at crochet, and this is hands-down the best joining I've ever tried! And I've even got multiple needles so it'll be a bit simpler, yet! 😊 This will definitely be in my toolbox of tricks from now on. Thanks! ❤❤
This is awesome! I have been crocheting for over 50 years and have never seen this method. I will certainly be using this in my next project. Thank you for sharing ❤️
This popped up today for me and put a smile on my face. I am making a sweater with MANY color changes and you just made the rest of it SO MUCH easier for me. TYSM!!! 💜💜💜
Heavent to Murgatriod!!! That's sheer genuis! I've been crocheting for, well, more decades than I care to remember, and I've never seen anything like this. Bravo! 😄 👏
Incredible!! My mom taught me how to crochet about 18 years or so ago and I've never seen a join that looks as nice as this! Having done macrame too, this has a similar premise to one of the fastening knots used in that hobby that I loved for being so secure! I love this and can't wait to try it out! Thank you!
I've been trying to figure out how to do this for ages! Knew it ought to be simple but just couldn't work my way around it. Thank you so so very much. I'm going to share this to others and spread the joy! Thanks again.
I learned to use the Russian Join while knitting. I 've been pretty much exclusively been crocheting for the past 5 years and for some reason forgot about using it. Thanks for jump starting my brain!!
I have been crocheting for 35 years and I can not believe I never learned this before! It's so much better than what I have been doing! I switched methods in the middle of an afghan and it looks so different!
❤👍Thank you very much for uploading this perfectly clear and valuable lesson in joining yarn. I am 74 and delighted to learn this new technique. I always worried my knots would come undone in the wash. Plus the knots made a little bump. God bless you.🍀🇨🇦🌺
I just picked up crocheting and this is the neatest trick to crocheting I’ve found!! As a beginner, it gets overwhelming as I’m crocheting and the ball has a big ugly knot in the middle, I almost never know what to do for a while 😂 This is going to make crocheting so much more fun for me!
WOW. This is all I can say. Like many crocheters/knitters who left their comments, I've never seen this amazing way of joining threads. I am definitely trying this the next time the need arises. Thank you for sharing😊😆😍🥰
This is the second video I watched on doing the Russian join, but this is explained so well! Thanks so much for posting and helping along my crochet journey! 🧶
I've been crocheting off and on for over 35 years and this is definitely a first. It's like a "bloody magic trick" 😂😂. I love it. It's a little time consuming but sooooo cool Thanks a bunch.
You've a really nice, soothing voice. I'm glad this is a thing, I wasn't particularly looking but always hoped thered be a better way to join without knots! Thank you 💕
I've always just ended up with two tails that I would tuck in, but I'm working on a sleeve for this sweater and I just didn't want the little extra bulky spot. This is perfect. I tried it and it works so well! Thank you so much
This is so creative. Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve been doing crochet for a bunch of years now and I’ve never even heard of this. I was looking at another video and they mentioned the Russian join. I found your video and it’s very easy to understand. Thank you again, I’m going to love trying this, especially with my nice projects.
This kinda blew my mind! 😅❤ I've been just knotting them together. I always hated how noticeable it can be. While I wouldn't call it easy, at least not the first time, it looks so much better. It's worth the little extra effort.
Ty ty ty ty this is a life saver and actually works for me and believe me I have tried all other knots to join yarn yours or the Russian knot is number 1 now lol
I just joined two colors. At first I was pulling way too hard. Realized I had gone as far as I could & that I had completed the join. So much more efficient than the invisible knot. No snapping or breaking during this process. I'm sure this will change how my projects turn out. Thanks for sharing.
🤔😲🥴 Anybody else feel silly for never thinking of this on our own?? It's ingenius!! Can't thank u enuf for sharing this simple game-changing method! My weaving will definitely benefit from this. 😊
WHOA!!!🎉🎉🎉THIS IS EXCELLENT!!🎉🎉I've GOT to try this on my current project. Someone also mentioned it works on embroidery! Another BONUS for another project. GREAT SHARE and wonderful tutorial. Thank you❤

Same! 6 months later ❤
Me too !! Is not funny ??? 😄 maybe they are reading minds 😅😅
Same here I was thinking it last night, “how do I do this yarn join I forgot “ and opening TH-cam this is the first thing I see❤
I can't call it "easy" compared to a knot, but it is very professional and beautiful. Thank you for the tutorial.
You are right!!!
yes i tried many times but couldn’t get it.

You & me...60 years old with decades & decades of crocheting under my belt & this is completely new to me. I'm so excited to do this!
64 - 12 = 52
You've been crocheting for 52 years not 54.
it's the best thing that I have learned in the last year
Been a hooker for almost 40 years, this is a first and I dig it! Still stuff to learn!
Please be my grandma, you seem so cool!!

This is called a splice 😊👌 working on boats you get very used to tieing your ropes like this for permanent fixtures 😁✌️
Same with trucking...splicing ropes & fixing tarp ropes.

Looks great. I suppose the hardest part might be getting the spot placed perfectly in your piece. Nice video - well done.
I was just thinking this! I guess even with such a helpful hack we still have to struggle a tiny bit to make the end product even more satisfying haha
I think it would work best for joining two yarns of the same color, perhaps when you need to start a new skein.
You are correct!
I tried to place it right but was joining black to orange.. did it a wee too far down, so too much orange. I am just going to use a sharpie to color the little dot of orange, black. 🤣

What an amazing technique. I can see why this is a more secure way to attach yarn. Thank you.
I've always just ended up with two tails that I would tuck in, but I'm working on a sleeve for this sweater and I just didn't want the little extra bulky spot. This is perfect. I tried it and it works so well! Thank you so much
This is so creative. Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve been doing crochet for a bunch of years now and I’ve never even heard of this. I was looking at another video and they mentioned the Russian join. I found your video and it’s very easy to understand. Thank you again, I’m going to love trying this, especially with my nice projects.
This kinda blew my mind! 😅❤ I've been just knotting them together. I always hated how noticeable it can be. While I wouldn't call it easy, at least not the first time, it looks so much better. It's worth the little extra effort.
Finally found a method that doesnt show any obvious signs ive knot the two yarns! Thank uu
Oh man I love this I never knew this could be done!
I want to scream this is so simple and amazing. I need to use this!!
Finally found you! Thank you TH-cam! Only took about a year to come across my search and feed!
Ty ty ty ty this is a life saver and actually works for me and believe me I have tried all other knots to join yarn yours or the Russian knot is number 1 now lol
This is splicing. We were taught this in Boy Scouts, back when they taught boys useful life skills.
I just joined two colors. At first I was pulling way too hard. Realized I had gone as far as I could & that I had completed the join. So much more efficient than the invisible knot. No snapping or breaking during this process. I'm sure this will change how my projects turn out. Thanks for sharing.
🤔😲🥴 Anybody else feel silly for never thinking of this on our own?? It's ingenius!! Can't thank u enuf for sharing this simple game-changing method! My weaving will definitely benefit from this. 😊
❤never saw this kind of join before, thank you and now and now all my scrap yarn can be joined and used. ❤
