Stranded Colourwork Basics
Demystify the basics of stranded colourwork knitting! This tutorial covers the key foundations in the two areas that make colourwork different than other knitting: 1) having more than one yarn to deal with, and 2) getting your gauge/tension to work. I also go over knitting inside-out - an easy, fab way to manage float length.
