DescriptionWhat is Helical Knitting?
Helical knitting is a technique for knitting stripes in the round without the need for carrying yarn behind the work. It sets up each colour to work as a distinct spiral of stitches. You can add stripes in two or more colours and have different thicknesses of stripe, all without having ugly uneven bits in your knitting where you have carried your yarns.
Why Helical Knitting?
Not only is it a way to add jogless stripes to your knits but it is also a great way to help avoid colour pooling when working with hand-dyed yarns! Plus you can add stripes to plain stocking stitch knits really easily!
