STEP-BY-STEP JOINING IN YARN

-

1 Whenever possible, join in a piece of yarn at the beginning of a new row. Holding both strands of yarn, insert your needle in the first stitch of the row. 2 For the first stitch, wind both yarns around the needle and pull both through as usual. On the following row, knit the two strands for this stitch as one. 3 Now drop the ‘old’ yarn and continue working along the row, winding just the ‘new’ yarn around the needle for each stitch. 4 The wrong side shows the new yarn worked in. Tie off the ends of the yarn loosely until you finish the piece and weave in the ends.
