Weaving RSStranding and weaving are techniques for carrying yarn not in use across the back of the work until it is needed. In the Rocking Horse Bib weaving was used, and in the Single Digit Hat stranding was used. Each of these garments was knitted with two colors of yarn. There are advantages to each technique and there may be occasion to use both in a given garment. This article discusses the weaving technique.
