CONTINENTAL TECHNIQUE Lesson 15.a 

Connecting Two Yarns-Weaving in




  • Leave about 4cm/1inch yarn end and place new yarn together with the end. Process stitches with both yarns, so that at least 2-3 stitches are formed with both yarns.
    Keep in mind that this method can be only used with animal fibers, such as wool, Alapaca or mohair because these yarns are made of thousands microscipic fibers that will be matted into each other. Neither cotton or man-made fibers have this matting qaulity.
