[Tips Discussion] Patterns with lots of colour changes

If the different colours each have more than 20 stitches, I complete the individual colours first.  If the colours have a few stitches each, and very close to each other (almost like confetti), I use 2 needles, marking the threads with little tags.  Completing 1 colour would mean leaving gaps on top, threads underneath.  Threads underneath sometimes sit on holes, blocking smooth pull of the next thread.

Have attached a pic, hope it comes out ok.

I love patterns that integrate different colors in it . I am also a start and stopper . I simply cannot stand having a bunch of floss hanging out of my work , so I complete a section first before moving onto the next color . It keeps the work neater for me . Its all a matter of personal preference, of course . :loveliness:
