What is the famous magic knot yarn join? It is a seamless way to join yarns when a project you work on needs to use yarns of different colors or more than one skein of yarn.

As a beginner, I tied my yarns together somewhat like this.

I hid them on the wrong side of the work but as you can guess this solution was not ideal. Apart from the unpleasant visual effect, the knots felt sturdy and uncomfortable. Especially when working with cotton. Then I learned a better way to make it – the so-called “magic knot” technique. It is also often called Russian Joint or Seamless Joint.

This simple short tutorial will teach you how to tie strands of yarn together with an invisible knot.

It does not matter if you tie the yarns of the same color or not, your magic knot yarn join will not be visible on both sides of the work and will hold two yarns together well.

I hope this was helpful and you may check our school section on the blog or my YouTube channel for more tips and tutorials for beginners.
