They are so beautiful. Intarsia is easy, just frustrating because I don't make bobbins like you are supposed to do, but just use the big balls of yarn which can get very tangled. I did make the little bobbins using my mother's old keepers for the metro coat. That made things much easier. The best skill to learn is carrying yarn across the back, something that is best learned from another knitter. <br /><br />Good luck and keep up the knitting!ringadalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06283684479786006008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6099599233357068432.post-33494086969380412252012-01-19T02:23:33.672-08:002012-01-19T02:23:33.672-08:00I somehow missed this post.

When I think of all the trials, errors and VICTORIES knitted into this coat; your back problems, struggling with new techniques.... it simply looks breathtaking.<br /><br />Well done!<br /><br />I am passionate about knitting but relatively new to it - two years in total - intarsia has me a little baffled but maybe (you have inspired me) I could make 2012 the year when I conquer my fears about lots of little bobbles of coloured yarn hanging from the back of my work? ;-)<br /><br />I wish you a peaceful and joyful Christmas.millefeuilleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14608950213999238191noreply@blogger.com
