Happy New Year my friends!
I have a question about carrying yarn in stranded knitting. The pattern calls for a lice stitch section for a major part of the sweater body. The lice pattern consists of 4 rows in total: rows 1 and 3 are all one color (dark) and rows 2 and four have two colors; 1 light and 3 dark. My question is: for rows 1 and 4 which are all one color, can I simply leave the other light color yarn hanging and only twist at the beginning of the round or do I have to catch floats even though there is no light color in those rounds? I hope this question makes sense - holler if it doesn’t.
I would like to avoid having to catch those floats if I can…
