A very Simple quickie today - ever had this annoying situation? You get to the end of a ball of wool, but you're still in the middle of working a piece? There are lots of ways of joining the ends of a new ball into your work; my favoured method used to be the 'leave the dud end on the wrongside and pick up the new thread like nothing happened' method. Then you knot the loose ends together and skim them in at the end.
This is inferior! Now that I have my felting needle and mat, I can do this - all without getting up from my armchair:
Just stab until melded. You'll have one or two fatso stitches on your rightside, but who likes skimming in ends? Nobody. Who likes stabbing fluffy things? Ok, rhetorical....
