Two Color Knitting on DPNs

This is how I manage knitting in two colors on double pointed needles to prevent a ladder from forming where the needles join. There is no one correct way to do this so you may find a way that is different that works better for you. I hope this helps knitters that are new to color work knitting who want to give this a try.

haha what a pleasant surprise.. i've been learning how to knit socks from your videos, got a nice pair of socks and now checking how to knit fingerless mittens and what do I see, you have a book folk knitting in Estonia :D where did you get it from? did you visit Estonia? I'm from Estonia myself, I just was stunned when I saw the book in your next video :D thanks for teaching us, you're a good teacher :)

Amazing job talking and knitting at the same time. I could never do that.

Fantastic tutorial. You have a future in knitting instruction. You're very well spoken and your explanations were clear and easy to understand. I'm doing my first two color project on dps--an infant pumpkin hat. Seeing how to hold the two yarns while working with the dp needles was very helpful. Thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge in such an enjoyable video.

Thank you for posting this! Eunny Jang's Endpaper Mitts are pretty high on my queue, and they'll be my first stranded project. This video was helpful and encouraging!
