And I was not satisfied with how it came out...(a little pinched, like you said)... I would then rip down my work and try again adding yet another bobbin. The results were that I had a lot more ends to tighten and weave in, but I was a bit more satisfied.<br />I do believe intarsia in knitting can never be totally perfect!

It doesn't look too bad but I'm not sure if I want to incorporate it just yet into a cardigan. It looks a little pinched. But I'd like to try it out the way you did with bobbins. Stranding the unworked yarn at the back was causing the pinch I guess.<br /><br />Nidhi from RavNidhihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14699519561370678163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4243628742988805386.post-5074598869168392512012-07-23T22:37:43.376-04:002012-07-23T22:37:43.376-04:00I am not a big fan of doing intarsia.
