This Brooklyn Tweed knitting tutorial shows you how to work helical 1x1 striping in the round to create jogless stripes! Perfect for jolly striped hats and socks or for smoothly blending tonal or hand-dyed yarns in a garment.
Where to start striping?
Anywhere you like! Starting at the beginning of round (BOR) marker is easy and clear, but not totally necessary, since once you get going the BOR is completely arbitrary for your color changes. It only remains there to give you a guide for when to work shaping, etc.
How to stop striping and continue in one color?
To end, you just need to stop working the “stripe” color and overtake the join point with your main color, then continue knitting with your main color as usual.
