Two hands colorwork knitting. I have found this is Two hands colorwork knitting. I have found this is the fastest and easiest way for me to knit colorwork while keeping my yarns from getting tangled.

How about you? Sometimes depending on the pattern I focus more on the dominant color and sometimes I just knit along.
