Dear users, dear authors,
How can you tie the ends of balls of yarn together neatly and securely? Is there a trick to it?

I always use the Frankfurt knot. So far, none of them have come undone—thank goodness.

That’s saved me from having to sew up loose ends more than once.

That’s how I almost always do it, too.
