How to Seamlessly Hide Knots in Your Knitted Patterns


Let’s see how we can fix the knots at the back of your knitted pattern, especially when adding another yarn.

While knitting, I made a knot to continue my pattern, but now it’s time to address it. Here’s how you can remove the knot and hide it seamlessly:

  1. Gently remove the knot and use a needle to weave the loose ends into the surrounding stitches.
  2. Follow the direction of the stitches as you work. You can weave both strands at once, but I prefer doing them one at a time for a cleaner and neater finish.
  3. Once you’ve worked in the first strand, repeat the process with the second strand, carefully passing it through the stitches.
  4. After both strands are secured and hidden, trim the excess yarn.

The result is a smooth, tidy back without any visible knots, leaving your pattern looking professional and polished.

Thank you for watching!
