I've had a lot of you tell me you won't touch color work because of all the ends. I hope some of these tips will help change your mind. And if any of you have a tip that really helps you with these pesky ends, please share, I'd love to know! xx

Thank you so much for actually showing how to do the magic knot at the end of the row in changing colors. That’s is exactly how instructional work should be done. I was struggling with doing it until now. I am making a lap blanket for senior citizens homes and I have lots of color changes. Be well and stay safe!

Thank you for the magic knot! I’ve always either woven in ends or worked over them and only used the magic knot to join new yarn of the same color and always mid row. I’ve NEVER seen the trick to join at the beginning of a row to change color! Saving your video for future reference. Now I want time make something with stripes just to test it out!

Magic knots can absolutely be a game changer if the yarn weight and fiber content "play well" with them. The Russian join can also makes a secure, neat transition if you don't want any knots in certain projects (e.g., baby blanket, chemo cap, preemie cap, knitted knockers, etc.) Crocheting the tail into your work (either alternating it with the new working yarn or combined) can also work well. When those options aren't feasible, I find that weaving ends as you go (WEAYGo 😄) is well worth the up-front time and effort because doing so keeps the WIP much neater, without an increasingly cumbersome bunch of tails to work around. With WEAYGo, one is more likely to do a better quality job on each tail than having to do them all later after project burnout has set in. Also, WEAYGo provides an occasional break from marathon stitching, which can benefit the joints and muscle groups involved. Finally, as stated in the video, WEAYGo ensures that when you're done stitching, you're done with the project 👍 (aside from washing/blocking it 😉)

My tip is coming from the knitting but works well for crochet too. I just work the tail with the working yarn and do 2 stitches. The stitches might be a bit thicker but no problem with dk and 4 ply. I can’t even unravel it when I do mistake and need to frog it, I have to cut it so it does work well! Work 2 stitches with the tail and simple cut it after👌

So I just made each block of the month the same color. But now that I’ve seen this, this is absolutely a game changer for me! Thank you so much!!!

I used to do this technique with the magic knot to change colors, but not so much anymore. I did it on a few blankets that I use at home frequently and within a year or so several of the knots came loose… The first time I thought maybe it was a characteristic specific to really fine merino, but it ended up happening with some of my more rustic wool and cotton items as well :( The tip you had for leaving a bit back after covering the tail with stitches to weave backwards is a great idea! I will start doing that from now on!

aaaah, thought that might happen with the fisherman's knot. Never tried it myself, but just doesn't seem very secure. Specially if you wash your work regularly. It'll come undone. I also cover my tail as I go and then just leave a piece to weave it back once and back again and for extra security I double knot the old colour and new colour together, tightly to the stitch, before working both ends in together. Need to get myself canvas needles though, those look awesome.

I croched a HUGE granny square blanket with 70 squares and many changed colors. It left me with at least 10 yarn ends per square. I spent several nights weaving them in and it even felt a little zen-like doing it. 😂 After months and months of making squares it was something different to me and even relaxing and satisfying seeing my mountain of REALLY FINISHED squares grow.

I had briefly ventured into mosaic crochet, but I hated all of the tails and put it away for something to work on in the future. (This was a couple years ago. lol) I'm going to try the magic knots and see if I can finally do mosaic without the headache of weaving tails at every row. Thank you for such great hacks! I wish I'd found your channel sooner. I'm subscribed to many crochet channels that have good instructions, but you've got the hacks! I'm definitely going to suggest your channel to my Hooker friends!

I’m always afraid of not calculating the yarn correctly when doing the magic knot at end of a row before switching to the next color, so I just cut and weave 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m finding out that I prefer to weave ends as I go so I’m not overwhelmed with the task at the end of the project and I also have a couple of favorite needles. I think that has actually helped me change my mind about granny squares, which I used to avoid like the plague 😆 Thanks for all your tips 😊

In addition to tip #2: an easy way to thread a needle with yarn: kzbin.info/www/bejne/poacnaSqd5tsi7M. Essentially, you fold the yarn over the needle, then squeeze the yarn as you pull it across, over the needle. It squishes the yarn down so it's easier to pass through the eye! I learned it from a hand quilting video :)

The only reason I don't weave in my ends as I go,is if I see an error, is easier to take out without the ends weaved in.
