Tips

  • For clean lines, I suggest always fastening off with the invisible join.
  • At the start and end of your sweater, you get crisp lines by first slip stitching in the back loops.
  • It is easier to work in these loops if the slip stitches are loose. I do that by going up a hook size for the slip stitches.
  • This colour change technique can leave a small stitch of the bottom colour visible. I cover this using a yarn tail from the top colour.
