This video is part of my Colorwork Series.
While tension is important in knitting, in general, it is even more so when Fair Isle / stranded knitting. This is due to the fact that you are utilizing two working yarns to create a pattern. Tension plays a strong role in the readability of the pattern. In most cases, proper and good tension come with practice and experience as it did so for me. Along the way, I tried various techniques to create good and consistent tension regardless of types of yarn, yarn weights or needle size. In this video, I demonstrate a couple of those techniques I found most helpful. These are by no means the only techniques, but they are ones that have yielded positive results in my color work. Always remember to not give up. Experiment and practice.
Thank you for watching and please provide comments and feedback.
