I always use this and it’s fantastic !
Always do it this way.
There is NOT a knot strong enough to withstand the usage and washing of a knitted or crocheted item. Wool needs to be ‘spliced’ together into a single strand and all others need to be ‘spliced woven’ into worked stitches. I have been knitting and crocheting for over 55 years and I guarantee if you tie ANY knot in you yarn it will eventually work itself loose to expose a nasty surprise after all your time spent on your project. The only ‘magic’ used here is if you believe this knot will work.

Uni knot, it’s a fisherman thing, been using this for years.
I have used this for years. Only way to tie. I think it’s also called a tailor’s knot.
The knot shown in the example is technically not correct. Both knots are left-handed. They need to be backwards of one-another for full strength.
