This is by far the best technique for a seamless color change in the round. Thank you very much for posting this video! I’ve learned a lot from you! 😀

Thank you! This is the BEST explanation of many videos i have watched!

[nancycurtain]

I have looked at many knitting tutorials and yours are always the most helpful. The first one that I viewed was on the magic loop method and it was a game-changer for making smaller items in the round! Just finished watching your jogless colour change video and I can’t wait to apply these two techniques to my current WIP!

I've looked everywhere for 1 row jogless color change and I finally found it!. Thanks for this tutorial!

[LBofcourse]

Outstanding explanation. Thank you for showing these two techniques in one video; it made it easier to compare techniques and understand if the color change shifts.

finally! I made the mistake of not knitting a new color first. Thank you Roxanne

Thanks, Roxanne, for addressing the change of color 'spiral' and the need to mark the original beginning of round. I was just starting the sleeves of a striped sweater and the shaping was making me scratch my heard. The body had no shaping to the underarm, and not stripes after the underarm, so it wasn't an issue till the sleeves.

Thanks for taking the time to teach those of us who still have much to learn. Aside from an excellent description of the different techniques for avoiding jogs when knitting stripes in-the-round, the explanation of the pros and cons, with respect to the shifting beginning of round location, is the information I thought was crucial. Thanks again!

Thank you for the explanation on how the color change shifts the color change stitch to the left. This was happening to me and it left me confused. Thought I was doing something wrong. Everyone that posts a video with this technique seems to not mention how this shifts things over. Makes you wonder what went wrong when it's normal. I really appreciate that. Thanks.

Thankyou, your explanations are clear and easy to understand and you point out things that a beginner may not pick up on her own.

Thank you Rox for explaining this simple, but hard to fathom, technique. I've been trying for ages to get this right. Now I'm able to do so. Thank you so much.
