How to Weave or Tucking in Floats Stranded Knitting and/or Fair Isle knitting. Those pesky floats of yarn can get in the way so why not tuck or weave them in as you knit? That's right, with a few extra movements you can tuck away those floats in your stranded knitting project or fair isle sweater.
Once you get the rhythm down, you will not have to think too hard about the motion. Don't believe me? Give it a try. Grab some yarn and needles and let's do this together!

After many rewinds, I think I’ve finally got it! Thank you, Marley Bird! 😊💕
Fabulousssss. It’s so easy that way. And it is very generous of you to describe with description under the video. It is very clear. Thank you so much it give the taste to yarn again
As always, you are a great instructor. So glad that you didn't rush through any part of your instructions. Thanks for this tutorial.
Thank you so much for going slow and really explaining this technique in a clear way! I was just reading instructions for my next project, and this will be a life saver!
I forgot to write it is nice that when you speak it is very very clear
This is freaking amazing! Way nicer than having all those twists behind my work in the way I was taught to do it. Thank you for making my day!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I looked through many videos, and yours is the most easily understood as well as being concise. After following along a few times, I was able to pick up the techniques and am now confidently working my way through a fair isle sweater.
Fantastic
This video helps a a lot, the instruction is easy to understand and the movements are slow enough for me to watch very clearly. Love it, thank you!
Hello Marly, thank you so much for this VERY cleary demonstration of how to weave in the yarn with 2-hands-method. This was a miracle, a mystery for me😆😆 I tried it, surely, but the yarn had its " seperat way of life"...😂😆. Now I will start again with your video for help. Some weeks ago I tried the english or french way to knit with yarn in both hands. O.k., with ONE colour I've got it. Now I will do it with 2 colours.
Thank you again, all the best for you and the people you love! Have a good time!! GittaLloreley from Germany🍀😇😇🍀🌈💞
You are amazing at explaining how to knit and carry the yarn! I have been wanting to try knitting with 2 color. Now I know I'll be making for my 1st time! Thank you for the pattern too!
Wonderful and clear! Thanks!
How wonderful. That’s brilliant. Thank you so much. Great idea 💡
wonderful! Thumbs up!! thanks for sharing with us, wish you happy life💕💕
Excellent! Will definitely use this next time I create a colorwork project. Thank you, Marly, for a great video tutorial! ♡
Thanks so much for making this tutorial. It all makes sense now. I can't wait to try this out. Thank you so much.
Great technique!!! Thank you Marly!!!
Great instructional video. Perfect speed for me to follow along. Question, how or even would this work for 3 or more colors? I am having a hard time keeping tension in my 3 color stranded knitting. Thanks!
WONDERFUL♡
Very helpful. Thank you!
I love your intro music
Thank you, Marly! I become anxious because I can’t get this.
Great tips thanks
I don't like the 2 hand method but it helped me understand how to weave colours
Perfect direction are great'!
That is much neater. Thanks
Great tip! Thanks!
Do we always carry yarn ? Even if you do a row in the one color .?
I have huge tension problem when I try fair isle. Even though I try I always end up with a less stretchy fabric which is particularly a problem in a hat. So, would you recommend to use this tecnique to hide the yarn at every single stich?
Catching the float's is slowing me down. Do I have to catch them. With the pattern I only have 30 stitches in the middle of a different color. I tried joining the wool but I get big ugly holes.
Is this easy to remember for most?
Класс!
Good morning,
please in french or subtitle french.
Your tuto is very interesting and very beautiful.
Good work.
Good continuation.
Thanks.
Cordialy.
Hi like am just wondering if you could help me. I have been trying to order some redheart wool but when it comes to my address it keeps changing the UK to USA and will not take my phone number. Thanks tracey Minton
How do you do this on the Purl side? Q A Q
Amei! 😍👏👏🇧🇷
That is great, thanks! (Would it work if you do that wrap on every stitch with the yarn that is not being used, thus eliminating all floats, or would that make it too bulky?
It wouldn't turn out the way you think. There is something called Jacquard knitting but it is completely different.
@@MarlyBird, thank you for the information, both in regards to my question and how to tuck floats.
can you show us how to do the scarf behind you?
the scarf in the back ground is stained Glass right?
yes, it is Red Heart Unforgettable in Stained Glass colorway. The pattern is here: bit.ly/2zd1FJn_Bargello_Knit_Scarf_Pattern

What yarn are you using exact?

Very helpful. Thank you a lot
