2 row stripe question!
I am sure this has been posted 50 thousand times or maybe I am just too dumb to figure this out. This is my first two color garment.

I am knitting a baby sweater with Baby Cashmerino in stockinette that has two row stripes. So, I knit one row, purl the next, switch colors. Certainly I don't have to cut the yarn and rejoin every two rows. How do I carry it up the side seam or something like that?

Thanks for your help!

If the stripes are just two rows, I wouldn't do anything special. I'd just start wrap the strands so there's not a hole, then start knitting again with the next color, making sure not to pull too tightly.
