I was trying to search conserving minuscule amount of yarn left (don’t want to weave end if I don’t have to) when I ran across the video by Roxanne Richardson, one row stripes without cutting yarn. (Color changing not my thing yet, though working on it.) I was truly shocked that you could move side to side, so yarn doesn’t have to be carried. Anyway not sure how to post link except copy&paste. But thought this might help someone else.

Yes this is a great technique. I had not seen the rox video and I’m not sure if I saw a different video a long time back and then forgot or if I just decided I could do this in my own. I’ve done this flat knitting on a circular needle, for me it was single rows but also any number of rows in stranded colour work. I had so many colour changes that I did need to weave quite a few ends in but I used the row one method as many times as possible. Just don’t get “hung up” on odd numbers being the right side etc because you can work odd/even rows on either side.
I love rox videos, thanks for posting.
I expect this was your unvention, same for lots of other knitters.
Wow, thanks, so helpful!
Thanks for taking the time to assist me in learning how to do this. Tried but didn’t look the same. But I’ll keep at it.
