Difficulty level: intermediate
Stocking st
1 Rw (RS): K all stitches
2Rw (WS): P all stitches
Intarsia
Each color area is worked with a different ball of yarn and the threads are crossed with each other at avery color change to keep them perfectly joined.
Take the thread of the first color and work the required number of sts. At the color change, keep the thread of the first color behind and to the left, take the thread of the new color by passing it under the first to cross it.Repeat this step for each color change on RS rows.
To simplify the work, use as many small balls as there are areas of color, in this way the threads never get tangled.
