I’m making this Advent calendar and am stuck at the beginning. Let me preface this by saying I haven’t done much colorwork in my life, and none in the past 10 years or so. The first row of the pattern is all knit with the main color. The second and third rows say this:
Row 2: Pull both yarns to the front with the first color to work on top. Purl into each stitch with its matching color, floating the other color over the working yarn.
Row 3: Purl into each stitch with its matching color, floating the other color under the working yarn.
I’m really struggling with how to place the yarn so it’s “over” or “under.”
I know now this is a huge ask, but can someone try to explain how I need to place my yarn so it’s over or under, or point me toward a YouTube video that explains it?
Thanks!!
