well I'm a quick learner, so I guess I like a little challenge

so far I've only made hats, scarves, and I tried a fingerless pair of gloves.
I looked at a video for fair isle knitting which doesn't seem too difficult(hopefully)but I get the just of it. Thanks for letting me know about that I've never heard of that method before.
is it easier to knit in the round? I'm guessing if I do it flat I'd have to purl every other row so the floats are on the same side
