  • Put your scrap yarn to good use when you make a Magic Yarn Ball! In the video, I show how to fasten yarn together using the magic join, and I share a project I recently finished using my multi-colored yarn ball. A Magic Yarn Ball is great for making bags, rugs, or pet blankets. Are you going to make a Magic Yarn Ball? Let me know in the comments what you will make out of it!

    Love this idea to make use of swatches! I've used this knot method for joining and have noticed that if you don't tie the knots exactly like you demonstrated, they can come undone. Something about the direction of the knot can cause it to loosen instead of tighten when pulled together. Your demonstration was the easiest to follow that I've seen. Thanks!

      So glad you found this tutorial helpful! I've heard of the knots coming undone for others, but fortunately they've held up pretty well for me. You might be right that it's a matter of looping the knot the wrong way!

    I love this. I do this with my yarn. It's exciting to see what color comes up next.

    Smart recycled materials. I use my small pieces for making random acts of crochet kindness. But I would like to make one of those bags. Namesta 🤗🐞🥰

    I actually take my test pieces and incorporate them into a patchwork afghan.

      Ooh, that's a great idea too!

      Less frogging and fewer ends to knot or weave in. Happy to email you pictures if you're curious what they look like.

    Nothing like trying to figure out what scraps you wanna keep and what scraps you wanna add on to your magic yarn ball.

    Have you found this join to be stable?

      Personally, I haven't had any issues with it coming undone. I've heard others talk about it not working well for them, so I think it's one of those where it depends on the person. I make sure my knots are really secure before I cut the tails though. Hope this helps!
