What I struggle with is a combination of two things you showed. When you're switching colors on the edge AND you have two strings poking out. I've tried using the regular switching pulling up both strings and putting the new leading string between. (Not sure if I'm making sense.) Not sure which way I like better. I'd hoped you'd do that in this vid! Lol
@AlexInnovations3 жыл бұрын
Try just switching using the technique I showed on the edge; try to keep the first string held back, and then use the second string (the most recent one) to switch with the upcoming string. I did not think about this scenario 😂

Hmm, I've been trying this technique for the past hour. In theory it seemed pretty simple. Now when I make the first forward knot, pass the yarn over / and under /////, and make the second fwd knot, the other color is visible behind the new color. If I pull hard, it kinda disappears... but as I keep knotting the next knots, the spot of color becomes obvious (even if I pull on that yarn behind) and it seems impossible to hide. Kinda like an extra knot. It's a mystery right now :/

Try ending the first row using the straightedge technique and then beginning the next row with the straightedge technique with your new color :) I have a portion in my 6 Alpha Tips and Tricks video that shows how to use the straightedge technique! :)

it might seem harder at first, but once you do it a few times it’s really easy to remember! I end up “defaulting” to this technique due to how many times i’ve repeated it :)
