This video was super helpful! I wish you talked more about ending the project though. For instance since the color change is not at the beginning of the round, the last row will always be off then won’t it?
This was so helpful, since I have knitted in different colors and I don’t mind the “jog” but I never thought it possible to not see it. I absolutely hate to sew seams on anything besides a raglan sleeve (for example) so anything I knit I do my best to knit in the round; I don’t mind the helix effect and usually the change of color occurs out of sight (on projects such as fingerless gloves/socks/hats).
I love this technique. However, I sem to have messed up and feel I need to rip out. I'm not good at fixing my knitting mistakes. How do I rip out and not screw up the stripes and jog? (I'm knitting a striped hat) Thanks
Unfortunately not, as far as I can find. When I was first experimenting with this method I also tried to use it just as a way to start and end helix knitting, but despite attempting different things I couldn't avoid a jog occuring somewhere. The benefit of helix knitting is that your beginning of round does always stay in the same place, but the compromise is that you're going to get the little 1-stitch jog where you begin and end your colour changes.
