Learning Intarsia

This scarf is knit in stockinette stitch on size 10 1/2 needles. I used one skein of Lion Brand Wool-Ease Chunky Yarns and small quantities of various fancy yarns that I've used in other projects. Lynn really likes her scarf.

I didn't have any yarn bobbins, and it was really difficult keeping my yarns untangled. Since I've finished this I've learned a little trick. Use zip lock bags for the small balls of yarn. Cut a hole just large ebough for the yarn to go through and keep the bag closed. Bobbins are probably better, but this helps a lot. There is a snack sized bag that is perfect for a small amount of yarn.


This is the chart I used from The Knitting Stitch Bible by Maria Parry-Jones . It's based on 16 stitches. I doubled it.
