Rather than having knots in the lace, if there isn't space to work the two threads together for a while I hang the new thread in and leave enough of a leash to be able to darn back afterwards - if threads overlap for an inch or so there is no need for a knot.

I have now completed that job of replacing the discolored threads. I cut off the bobbins, wound new thread on light bobbins and tied the new threads to the old ones. There will be a bunch of knots in a couple inches of pattern but it can't be helped. I don't think it will show when the ends are trimmed.
