Quick question:

[theliterator]

First hi! New to the group, etc.

Quick question: I'm doubleknitting a thing, and I can't make the image I want work. I can't figure out where to run the yarn while I'm switching my knits and purls to make it not have uhm... ugliness like strands crossing the pattern, which I was hoping to avoid via the double knitting.

The method I'm using is the whole "knit one color/side, purl the other."

Any middle of the night help would be awesome.

Basically, you want to be sure your two yarns are running between the two pieces and not on the outside. It's really hard to explain with words. You move the yarns together into position to work the next stitch, but you only knit that stitch using one of them.

Have you tried watching the video on Knitting Help? There are more on YouTube if that one doesn't help you.
