Then you flip your work around to purl the intarsia part. This involves slipping stitches twice (before you purl, and after) when you have to purl the intarsia part. As much as I prefer to knit in the round, I don't think I'll do intarsia that way in the future.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14581612215378945075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-824744276833463462010-07-18T23:27:57.845+01:002010-07-18T23:27:57.845+01:00Good luck with the change-over.

I would read your blog just for that information, even if it weren't also filled with fascinating tidbits about people, gardening, scotland, art, family, etc. Thanks for making me a person with a more rounded sense of all the interesting things there are to learn about the world!<br /><br />Barbara M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-33335201933290453012010-07-18T13:08:11.004+01:002010-07-18T13:08:11.004+01:00Welcome back to the online world!

If things do not work you phone up and a person in India sets up your system for you very carefully, very clearly and very very helpfully is my experience. I had a problem in that my wireless would initially not work and so connected to the adsl cable the person in India guided me through changing the settings and it worked! I hope the changeover goes as smoothly for you.Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01284457201328888459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-46546126312675900172010-07-18T08:40:56.700+01:002010-07-18T08:40:56.700+01:00I consulted the senior member of the household on ...I consulted the senior member of the household on the subject of Geoffrey Dutton and he says G definitely did not own a garden in Scotland - but his wife (Ninette - whom he eventually divorced) would have enjoyed one even more than he would. If you Google their names you can find pieces about both of them and Anlaby - the Dutton family property. All a bit bohemian but Geoff introduced me to some very interesting writers from time to time.catdownunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959328192182156574noreply@blogger.com
