16 - An Inside Job

Still working on robot mitten #2. I'm pretty proud of how neat the inside of these mittens look. I try not carry a color longer than 3 or 4 stitches without wrapping it & I try to vary where I wrap row to row. I try to keep the tension even & not too loose or too tight but its tricky. I'm afraid there is a little pulling at some of the places but I'm hoping, since these mittens are wool, blocking will work a lot of that out. I do end up having to stop every round our so to untwist the yarns though. One nice thing about wrapping as often as I do, the carried stitches don't catch on my rings when I wear my mittens.
What are your tricks or knitting with more than one color?
