TECHNIQUE: Intarsia

Intarsia is a knitting colorwork technique that involves knitting with blocks of color. They can be in any shape or design you like, but the key is that when you change colors you don't strand the colors you're not working with across the back. Color Queen Elizabeth Gorny will teach this 1-session technique class held from 10 am to 12 pm Saturday, Jan, 20.

By the end of this two-hour class, you will have a heart in worsted weight yarn.
