Color Changes - Horizontal Stripes

Color Changes - Horizontal Stripes

To help manage the yarn tails associated with horizontal stripes and color changes I tie a small, temporary square knot. This prevents gaps from occurring in the knitting and allows me to continue knitting past the color changes until I'm ready to weave in the yarn tails. The yellow arrows point to three of the four color transitions.

The first one (on the left hand side) is the change from white to green and the temporary knot is indicated by the left most arrow. The next one over is the green/yellow transition which I did not point to, followed by yellow/pink and then pink /white.
