This is to provide an easy alternative to complete this step. ** Knitting with two colours When working with two colours, there is subtle difference in how the colours show up in the pattern, depending on how the strands are carried behind the work. One colour will stand out better than the other, known as the dominant colour. In my experience you need to test for yourself which colour looks best as the dominant. If you happen to switch the order of the strands, a small but visible unevenness will appear in the end result.
