One way of doing bands of colour on the sweater would indeed be to tie on the new color and work in the ends.
would do that at the begining of a row. To keep it from being loose, you would tie the yarn snug against the stitch.
can use the ends to help stitch up the edges of the front and back or arms.
leave enough to do that. (Wind them onto a small piece of card board to keep them tidy while you work.) ANOTHER WAY would depend on how many rows your bands of colour are if they are only a couple of inches or less, then you can tie in the green the FIRST time. DO NOT CUT the yellow! Work your band of green colour.
on the same side you started on.
your yellow back up and carry it up the side loosely to where you will start knitting yellow again.twist the yellow and green yarnaround each other to secure the next stitch.
start the yellow.
just end the yellow on the same side and twist with the green when you go to change.
you go to sew the front and back together, make sure you catch the carried strands of yarn in your joining stitches.
you get a little fancier and want to do designs in intarsia, (rows that have two or more colors that alternate in a design) you will essentially be doing the same thing carrying the yarn to where it starts again. www.lionbrand.com has a lot of good beginner info and how to's it's free to sign up and really worth it.
