It’s called — unsurprisingly — a weavers’ knot. It was used by cotton weavers in Lancashire, England, the prime source of woven cottons throughout the world in the 19th century and into the 20th. It was used to join the ends of a spool of yarn so as to avoid creating an obvious knot in a length of woven cotton. 
How do I know? My mother taught it to me more than sixty years ago and she was the daughter of a cotton weaver, my grandfather, who worked in a Lancashire cotton mill in the early 1900s at the age of 12, attending school in the morning before working the other half of the day in the mill. My grandmother was the daughter of the manager of the same cotton mill. Their marriage across the social divide in 1913 caused quite a stir in the small rural community they lived in, I’m told. 
Not all mills were in the large smoky towns of people’s imagination. Many were originally situated in the Pennine Hills because of access to the water from the hill streams they needed to power the mills, hence the term mill; just like a flour mill they needed flowing water to turn the mill wheel to power the machinery. In my family’s case the cotton mill was in Rossendale, still a relatively rural part of the county.

Thanks so much for posting this video. I am between a beginner and intermediate knitter. I am working on a scarf right now that requires changing colors at the beginning of rows. Would this knot work to do that? I'm wondering how to get the new color as close to the beginning of the row as possible. I want to keep from having to weave in my ends. Thanks for any help you or anyone else can provide. : )

Nope not worth the frustration . If it slips out after the project is all finished it can't be fixed!
