Seamless Intarsia in the round
Intarsia ‘in the round’ is a seamless way to achieve a block of colour in hats, toys, sweaters, mittens etc. It is not technically knitting in the round as the work is turned and purled each row, but, it looks like knitting in the round and is completely seamless.
A nine page photo tutorial of the method of intarsia in the round that I use, this includes step by step photos showing how to set up, knit and purl intarsia in the round.
This tutorial includes:
How to start a single block of intarsia on a knit or purl row.
How to work intarsia in the round on both purl and knit rows.
Instructions on how to add multiple blocks of color.
Instructions on working with multiple blocks of color.
A summary sheet.
A simple pattern for a phone cozy with one block of color, this includes adding a plain round to the block and is both written and charted.
This tutorial is written and photographed from the point of view of a right handed knitter.
The tutorial and included sample pattern has been extensively test knit and professionally edited.
