Knitting colorwork continental style, Fair Isle with short floats

Показать описание
Colorwork for continental style knitting with 2 colors. Fair Isle with short floats. I'm holding both colors in the left hand without twisting the yarn.
I prefer darker color as my first strand of yarn, the ball with darker color always stays on the left side. The second, lighter color stays on the right side.

I also knit colourwork in continental and I've found that it's a lot easier if you can separate the two strands better on your finger. I do that by having the strand closer to my body (my "accent" colour) wrap over my index and the "background" colour strand wraps under then over. This makes it a lot easier to not accidentally pick up both strands. Great video though!

You're the first person I've seen who knits continental with both colors for colorwork like I do!! I'd be interested to see how you would handle the yarn doing longer floats because working English style and continental at the same time to catch floats isn't working for me lol.

The video image is nice and clear, but quite honestly I can't make out a word you're saying, even with my volume turned all the way up.
