There was someone round here who always recommended knitting by using a
socket to hold one needle. I like the idea and can see the benefit but I
wonder how one uses several yarns (i.e. different colours or textures) while
only using one hand.

The holder (sheath) just means you don't have to hold the right-hand
needle with your hand, so you have a hand completely free to manipulate
the yarn. If you do multicolor knitting by holding one color in each
hand, it still works the same way for the left hand and the right hand
is freer.
