Its used for joining lines of different diameter.
Basically a loop of the light line (orange in the pic) is is wound back up the heavier line (grey in the pic), then a uni knot is tied over both the line and tag end of the light line to hold it in place.
I've sen it done but it is a bit fiddly. An improved albright knot would be better IMO.
