I got a lot of knitting done yesterday at our game. I'm finished with the first ball of yarn already! I am more than halfway through the "increase" section of this scarf and then I'll start the largest section. It's called straight knitting but it's not, because the whole thing is on the bias. So you still have to increase on one side and decrease on the other.
Now I have to pull out another ball of yarn and hopefully one of them starts on the same color I'm ending on so the transition won't be too jarring. I am thinking about doing a different kind of join than I normally do. Usually I just leave a tail of yarn that I weave in later (I do this for the yarn that is ending and the yarn that I'm starting) but I think this time I might actually join them together.
I was thinking of using the Russian Join, but this yarn is not really twisted. it IS really "grabby" though, so it might work fine. I guess we will see!

@AngelaPreston You could try the Twist-and-Go join? It's the last join in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieRCqG4EbNs
