The Little Knitter that Could



With the help of Susan Turner's Teach Yourself Visually: Knitting (which, btw, I've had checked out from the library for about 9 weeks now,) I have taught myself the basics of intarsia!
I'm also happy to report that I started the Boh scarf earlier this week.
Actually, I started it several times, after messing up and undoing it all- But I think I'm past the initial bumpy patch now. It's looking pretty good at this point.
I forgot to mention in my last post that this scarf will be a gift for my brother. He loves scarves and he loves Natty Boh. Also, because he's going to school in Boston, he needs scarves and it's virtually impossible to get Natty Boh (it's really hard to find outside of Maryland.) So the Boh scarf is pretty much a trifecta of gift perfection.
I used this website to create the Mr. Boh graph. I've been making a few small changes to it as I've progressed with the scarf. When it's all done I'll post a copy in case anyone else wants to give it a try.
