Alternating Skeins when Knitting Flat: How to Carry Yarn up the Side
Master the art of Alternating Skeins in Flat Knitting with this comprehensive tutorial on how to seamlessly transition between colors. This video covers how to carry a resting yarn up the side of your work, which is essential when working with hand-dyed yarn to blend boundaries between skeins or when creating colorful stripes. Steps to Alternate Skeins in Flat Knitting: 1. Finish your current row with the working yarn, and move the working yarn in the same direction as you would if you continued knitting. 2. Join the new yarn and knit one row, then turn and work back with Garter Stitch. 3. To switch yarns, bring the resting yarn up and over the old yarn, twisting the yarns to carry it up neatly. This process not only blends colors smoothly but also avoids abrupt changes and adds a professional touch to your knitted projects. This video is for Right Handed knitters.
