Make Your Motifs Pop: Mastering Color Dominance in Stranded Knitting

In this episode ofSkein and Tell we’re unraveling one of the most powerful secrets in colorwork: color dominance.

It’s a tiny detail, the way you hold your yarns, but it completely transforms your knitting. Get it right, and your motifs are bold, sharp, and professional. Get it wrong, and they blur into the background.

In this episode, Gea will walk you through:

  • What color dominance is (and why it matters so much)
  • How to hold your yarns for consistent, crisp motifs
  • The connection between floats and dominance (and how not to mix them up!)
  • Gea's best tips and tricks for practicing dominance with the Dorthea Collection
  • A little history lesson, from Selbu mittens to Fair Isle sweaters, on how knitters have used dominance for centuries


Want to see it in action? You can find free Dorthea patterns on hobbii.com and read the full blog post here:

And don’t forget to share your colorwork with us on Instagram, so tag @hobbii_yarn and @copenhagenfibers with #hobbiidorthea and #CopenhagenFibersByHobbii.

Because when it comes to colorwork, it’s not just about the colors you choose, it’s about how you make them shine.
