Discover the techniques and tricks behind creating beautiful colourwork with intarsia in the round. In this hands-on workshop, you will learn how to work intarsia blocks and motifs seamlessly while knitting in the round, exploring colour changes, managing yarns, joining sections, and keeping your tension neat and even.

In the workshop, you will learn:
• How intarsia works when knitting in the round
• Managing multiple colours and yarn sources
• Techniques for joining and changing colours neatly
• How to prevent gaps, loose stitches and uneven tension
• Reading and following an intarsia chart

The workshop is practical and relaxed, with plenty of opportunity to practise the techniques and ask questions along the way. Build your confidence with this fascinating technique, while creating a sample you can use as a reference for future projects.

Students should be able to cast on, cast off, knit, and purl and be comfortable knitting in the round using circular needles or DPNs. Some experience with working from charts will be helpful but not essential.

Please bring to the workshop:

• a pair of DK-weight gauge-size circular knitting needle/DPNs (your preferred needles for working small circumferences in the round)
• ruler
• pencil/pen
• tapestry needle
• scissors.

Yarn will be provided.
