\"How
\nDealing with yarn ends can be one of the more annoying parts of knitting and crochet, all that weaving in loose ends at the end of a project can be a real drag! Then there is the question with what to do with all those left over scraps of yarn that you end up collecting. Well I’ve got a solution to both those dilemmas with one easy technique. I’m going to show you how to needle felt yarn ends together to create one continuous length with no knots or bulky joins. It’s perfect for when your yarn runs out mid row or to make a rainbow ball of wool like I’ve done here.
\nYou can watch the video for detailed instructions, I’d recommend this if you are new to needle felting, or read on below for step-by-step pictures and instructions.<\/p>\n
