Once you’ve used it and can determine the length that’s good for you, when joining the ends, you will wonder why you didn’t try it sooner!

What you want to do is follow a strand of yarn in one row with your tapestry needle so that you are literally duplicating the stitches. It can be done with just about any stitch, seed stitch, cables, etc (it doesn’t work very well for openwork like lace though).
