Join me for a detailed dive into 2-colour stranded knitting, CONTINENTAL STYLE! (that is, holding BOTH yarns in the left hand)
I'm working on my Alexandria Cowl, by Shinysuperhero, and mastering the art of two coloured stranded knitting in the continental style. The aim is to retain speed and quality without driving myself bananas with a monster yarn spagetti.
I break down the technique that I learned, discussing some of the issues with 2 stranded colourwork as well as the experience I went through, with lots of neat little handy tips and guidance. Develop your technique with me as we practice ONE colour continental, then building up to TWO colour continental.
SPOILERS! If you want to skip ahead to the two colour business, its at the 9 MIN mark.
I'm doing these videos just for fun, and am not compensated or sponsored by any brands, shops or designers. All opinions are my own.
I hope you enjoy this video! Please let me know if you have questions or comments.
