Intarsia

about 8 years ago

I am offering something new in the class schedule this month, Intarsia knitting. I like to refer to it as controlled chaos in your knitting. Intarsia knitting enables you to introduce areas of color in any shape, size and number of colors to the background. Unlike Fair Isle knitting, that is knitted, in the round and you are able to carry your color with you and trap it along the way. Intarsia knitting is worked flat with many different yarns all going at the same time.
