From Nicky Epstein’s Knitting For Your Home:

“The Regal Tapestry afghan is a masterpiece combining intarsia and textured colorwork. If you’ve never done colorwork, this should not be your first project. The intarsia tapestry pear pillow is worked with a border showing a different colorway than the afghan.”
