I’ve just learned that there’s an Icelandic tradition of knitting intarsia in garter stitch!

I’ve never seen this either. The intarsia is lovely and the garter stitch makes such a comfortable, cushy fabric. Thank you for the post and the book link.

Ooh, nice. My next colourwork (which is still at the thinking stage) was going to be a mix of stockinette and reverse stockinette intarsia. I’ll try some in garter too and see if it works with my ideas.
Thanks for this.

Yeah, I just want to snuggle in that blanket! Which is not the same as saying I want to MAKE it…
