🧶 How do you keep track of your colorwork chart?
When knitting from a chart on your phone or tablet, do you mark off each row or crop the image as you go?
I’ve developed my own little trick after knitting so much colorwork. It’s really handy, so I thought I’d share!

I actually got inspired to start knitting because of the Seaglass series by @robertaseaport.bsky.social 😅 and learned colorwork first thing (my first project was a stranded colorwork sweater!) so that I could knit up a fair isle garment in seaglass colors one day

For anyone who isn’t a knitter: the most obvious tell is that this slop avatar has yarn going over fingers on both hands.
While that could, hypothetically, be how someone holds the main and contrast color for colorwork, thd depicted knitting is not colorwork.

Ja, denke ich auch. Kommt auf die Liste für 2027. Erstmal den aktuellen Pulli fertig stricken und dann die Colorwork-Socken.

It's so beautiful! If I ever find myself making another stranded colorwork sweater for my wife, this is top of the list

I have wanted to knit a standard beanie (with decreases) and try knitting socks AND try stranded colorwork AND make a gift for a specific rat enthused friend.
I could also just cheese the cat ear beanie with the rat chart

I need a Christmas Vacation sweater. Preferably a "Shitter's full" one. But my dream is to knit one myself, with Clark's legendary crashout that ends in "Hallelujah! Holy shit! Where's the Tylenol?"
I could take a "Shitter's full" screenshot and try to turn it into a colorwork pattern. Hmm. 😆

I have a stupid conundrum where none of my crochet or knit projects are doable in the dark right now because of slightly more complicated designs or colorwork
So I need to find something to do that’s mindless. I guess I could crochet another drawstring bag or something. Or just knit a square

Also, hello everyone lol. I'm knitting a sweater and it's going to be forever until I get to the fun colorwork part.

Thank youuu!!! Ngl I'm unreasonably happy about these socks!! My first time trying stranded colorwork. If it wasn't so hard on my hands I'd make a million funny animal socks and not stop haha. (A little break, then I might get back on the socks train...👀)

Like unless I start doing complex colorwork than it actually requires a bit more

I picked it up from various places over the last while, buuut I did find a video that gives it a pretty good explanation between the different types of colorwork.

For the one direction only, that was always mentioned off-hand as an option for reversible types.

Aquesta és llana acrílica molt econòmica d'una noia que es treia l'estoc, el jersei no haurà sortit en material a més de 20 euros però volia practicar "colorwork" i ja em servia, si considerem les hores que hi he invertit passades a preu de teràpia el jersei és una GANGA.

Beautiful. As a knitter who has never tried and is intimidated by colorwork, thank you for showing the WS of your work.
And here’s to your new genes.
