Intro to Intarsia Knitting, with Grace Mitchell

Often called "picture knitting," intarsia knitting is a colorwork knitting technique used to create blocks of color or graphic images by switching different balls of yarn throughout your flat garter-stitch knitted piece. In this class you will learn the basics, leaving with the skills to follow intarsia knit patterns or create designs as you go. It's a deeply rewarding craft that introduces artistic skills akin to drawing into the act of knitting.

This class is best suited for folks with a basic familiarity with knitting.
