#Colorwork Knitting Pattern

Tips for knitting colorwork⬇️ 1) Don’t let your stitches bunch up on your needles. Right before you change colors, spread the stitches out that are on your needles. This will help create even floats! 2) Color dominance does make a difference to the stitch definition. Make sure that your main color floats pass over the top of the contrast color floats. To help keep track, knit in English style for the main color and continental style for the contrast color. 3) Swatch and block before starting the project. Your tension will likely differ quite a bit from your usual tension when knitting colorwork so make sure to check your gauge. This will also allow you to figure out if the colors will bleed at all. It’s much better to find out from a swatch than a sweater. Update // The Darling Sweater pattern is out now!

📌Don’t forget to save this colorwork tip! Here’s how I switch colors while knitting a colorwork pattern: 1️⃣ Work the needed number of stitches in the first color 2️⃣ Change to the second color when ready 3️⃣ On the wrong side, carry the unused yarn (float it!) 4️⃣ If the color change spans too many stitches — just cut and reattach ✅ The result? Smooth transitions and a neat finish on the front! #ColorworkKnitting #KnittingTips #StrandedKnitting #FairIsleKnitting #KnitWithMe #YarnLovers #KnittersOfInstagram #KnittingHack #WoolAddict #KnitwearDetails #TheWoolcatcher #HowToKnit #CraftingMagic #KnittingInspiration

How to catch your contrast color floats in stranded colorwork knitting. For full tutorials, head to Pacificknitco.com.

I’ve knit piles of colorwork sweaters, hats, mittens, and socks, and I never catch my floats. If your tension is correct, your floats will sit neatly against the fabric and won’t hang around looking for fingers to tangle up in. And if you use non-superwash wool, the floats will quickly start sticking to the fabric, and there will be even less of a chance that they will snag on something. The sweater I am knitting here is called Eldfjall. The pattern will be released on February 10th. The yarn is @kelbournewoolens Scout. #knit #knitting #colorworkknitting

ants in a row raglan !!! she’s done !!!! such a joy to test knit this GORG pattern by @the_leafhopper 🐜🐜🐜 i’m so stoked with how it turned out!! and its sooo soft, knit with @bendigowoollenmills whisper merino 🐑 there wasn’t a huuuge difference between pre-blocked and blocked BUT it absolutely finished it off, smoothed out the edges and gave the arms and body a little bit more length - which is exactly what i wanted ☺️ this pattern isn’t out yet, so you better keep your eyes on @the_leafhopper for when it drops 👀 #antsinarowraglan #knitting #blockingknits #colourworkknitting #fairaisle #raglanknitting #queerknitters
