There are 2 ways of connecting.
You can tie a loose knot that can be untied, later and continue knitting.

Another way is to leave a long tail of each yarn, maybe a foot or so.  Then start knitting with the new yarn.  When you get to the second row, make sure your stitches are snug enough, that it is not gappy, where you connected the new yarn.
When you have enough knitting, weave in your tails or hold off until you finish.  Make sure you weave in color A in the correct section and B in the correct section, if you changed colors.

Amy, welcome! Thanks for identifying yourself. If you want to change colors at the beginning of a row, you can knit several stitches with double yarn, the end of one and the beginning of the other. That is the simplest way I know, but still noticeable to those who look carefully and know what to look for. There is another way which I can't really describe in email.

As i am deaf i can’t join in the live events as my hearing is too savers but i try any videos or utube recordings you put up and an of th links i find. Sometime i cna hear videos if they have been rfecorded at a high enough volume. I done a bit of knitting but it was a log time ago and i usually go to all kinds of crafts with PA who helps me. At home i make cards but have not as yet found somewhere i cna sell them. I am just aobut to start fabric painting wiht a bit of help form my mum and my PA using teddy and email. Have a question for knitters if you what to switch from form colour to another while knighting what is the best way to do it. I am using knitting needles and i would normally cut off the piece of wool once a line is ended and then knot the next colour to it but that can leave areas with vsiable knots cna points where the colours mix. Has anyone got a bettter way of doing that makes the finished product look more neat when finished?
