Same here I was thinking it last night, “how do I do this yarn join I forgot “ and opening KZread this is the first thing I see❤

I am 64 yrs old! My grandma taught me to crochet at 12 years old and I have been crocheting for 54 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. ❤

Thanks so much, I always look for something that I haven't done. I always love learning something new. Thank you for sharing.

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! ❤️❤️

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.

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 😁

At 71 1/2, and crocheting since I was a teen, I wish I had known this decades ago!!!!! oi vey!!! THANK YOU!!!

This is called a splice 😊👌 working on boats you get very used to tieing your ropes like this for permanent fixtures 😁✌️

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!

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.

Hello good lady. Thank you for the tutorial. If I have a humble request, it's could you make either the music a touch quieter or your voice a touch louder? As a lady with tinnitus it's very hard to hear you, and I wouldn't need subtitles if it wern't for the music being the same volume as your voice. Thank you

I think it would work best for joining two yarns of the same color, perhaps when you need to start a new skein.

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 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.

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!

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!

russian joins always seemed really intimidating to me but this was super easy to follow!

I’ve never seen anything like this before! And this video is so easy to follow! Thank you for sharing 🫶🏽

Oh dear. You are simply offering an alternative method of joining yarns and the comments morph into political bomblets. 😱 Bless you for your efforts.
