An intarsia carriage has unlocked INFINITE POSSIBILITIES!! What do you mean I can just put whatever I want on my clothes?
Machine is a SK360 standard gauge with ribber and intarsia carriage. Yarn is Knitpicks Comfy Fingering (cotton acrylic blend). The chart is adapted from a combination of knitting and cross stitch charts I found online.
I'm a lifelong handknitter who has recently taken up machine knitting due to recurring tendonitis in my wrist. The machine knitting world was very intimidating to me but about a month ago I finally took the plunge and bought a SK360 with ribber!
This is my first completed project on the machine. It's a modified version of the Lake Placid 1980 by Dale of Norway. I modified the charts to be a 24 stitch repeat and to add some extra length to the yoke to work with the machine gauge. The base pullover is a simple drop shoulder sweater calculated based on my gauge swatch. Yarn is Knitpicks Palette cones in cream & black.
I'm really excited to have unlocked this new world of machine knitting! Already planning my next projects...
