Chaging yarn colors when working in stripe pattern
by: Ratchadawan

Yes, you can. You have to make sure to twist the none working and working colors at the beginning or rows. This helps keep the edge looking nice and neat. There are many videos on fair isle knittings and intarsia knittings that you can check them out on YouTube.

Thank you for visiting and questioning!
