Picture Knitting

Over the last month or so I've had go at picture knitting or intarsia.  It basically means knitting with lots of colours to create a picture.

The picture I wanted to do was only 3 colours, but with all the colours weaving in and out I ended up with with 15 balls of wool on the go at once!

WHAT A PAIN....but its worth it as the finished item looks amazing.

I'm knitting for my friend who is due to get married soon. She has a camper van and instead of gifts she would like little donations to put towards doing the camper up.

Therefore, she is getting knitting. I can't tell you what it is but I hope she likes it.

More to come soon....
