If you have selvedge stitches at the sides of your project, attach the new yarn after you work the selvedges. This way, the pattern at the side edges will not get interrupted.

This is a step-by-step tutorial that explains five ways to join a new ball of yarn in a knitting project. These ways work for attaching a new ball of yarn of the same colour when you ran out of yarn, and for attaching yarn in a different colour.

Train swatching! #knitting #knitsky #ShowMeYourKnits
A colourwork swatch grows on a circular knitting needle. The background colour is a medium brown beige. The contrast colour is an acacia green. The motif is foliage, with little flecks in between.

f the pattern you follow instructs you to knit this stitch in the next row or purl it in the next round (to work in the garter stitch), do what our grandmothers did and simply knit three stitches together

When we pick up a dropped stitch, we should alternate knitting and purling the unravelled strands through that runaway stitch

When we make a stockinette fabric, the process of picking up a dropped stitch is quite straightforward - we knit unravelled strands one by one through the dropped stitch to rebuild the column of knitted stitches.
