Stripes Back

Skill Builder Exercises

Hi ,

The Goal of this Challenge

With no punchcards or electronics needed, stripes can be a fast way to add color and interest to your projects.

They can also help use up small quantities of yarn in your stash. In this challenge you will knit at 3 swatches. Each exercise will use different skills that may be new to you.

  • Basic Stripes

  • Single Row Stripes

  • Seaming Stripes

When knitting stripes, the goal is to have minimal yarn tails to finish.
  • Weave in the ends as you knit
  • Carefully run the yarn up the side of the knitting without breaking the colors when possible
I HIGHLY encourage you to practice knitting (and finishing) stripes.
