I use spinner wire doubled over.
Push the pointed 'loop' through rag body, but don't push the wire all the way through. insert yarn by spreading 'eye' of wire needle and then pull the 'needle' back through.

I don't like to put two pieces of yarn in anyway, because I like the colored yarn at 90 degrees to each other.
