How to Join 2 Yarns with Russian Join - Splicing Yarn

Learn how to join 2 yarns with the Russian Join splicing method in this tutorial video!

In crochet and knitting we sometimes need an extra strong join for 2 yarns. In cases like this we use knots, fabric glue, plus weaving in ends. However, with delicate and finer items, knots might not look so great. Plus weaving in ends afterwards might not be feasible either. This video shows a yarn splice method that works with yarn for crochet, knitting, loom knitting, etc. It is called the Russian join and it requires a yarn needle and a few minutes to do.

For this video I'm using primarily 100% acrylic super bulky weight yarn for ease of demonstrating the splicing technique. Any size yarn, cord, thread also works with this method.

Any questions, feel free to ask. And please enjoy this video! Donna Wolfe from Naztazia

Every time I've tried this join, I have a 50/50 chance of it working. It's such a useful joining method when I can get it to work 😅

Perfect! That is exactly how it's done. I've seen so many content creators struggle with this method that I was afraid to try it. Then I had a project where I really needed this technique. I was sweating as I was prepping for it! 😆 But it was easy! And you explained it perfectly and demonstrated it flawlessly. 👌

Love this option! Thank you for the video. OK, I have to ask: what nail colour are you wearing? It's gorgeous.

I'm completing my first temperature blanket and am ovwhelmed with weaving in the tails. I went looking for tutorials on the Magic Knot. Yours was very clear, and then afterwards it pulled up the Russian Join. This looks amazing. My one question is how do I do it at the 'right' spot so it picks up the new color when it's time to switch?

[marlenelieb]

This looks very neat, does ist work as well with pure cotton?

Interessante Technik ❤❤❤
Aber weshalb sollte ich zwei Farben verbinden ?
Ich setze grundsätzlich unsichtbar an. Ganz einfach. Zwei Farben in einer Reihe brauche ich selten.
Herzliche Grüße 👋🏻😊❤
