If you’re deciding on color placement for a stranded colorwork project or wondering which hue to use, match your yarn choices to colored pencils and get sketching. (This can also be a helpful approach if the chart shows the original colors and you’re knitting a different palette. It is easier to color the chart than to remember that red equals blue and yellow equals black for the whole project.)
