More About Intarsia Knit Fabrics:
Intarsia knit fabric is produced with a technique used to create patterns with multiple colours. Fields of different colours and materials appear to be inlaid in one another, fit together like a jigsaw puzzle.
Unlike other multicolour fabric production technologies (like double knitted fabric production), there is only one "active" colour on any given stitch, and yarn is not carried across the back of the work; when a colour changes on a given row, the old yarn is left hanging. Intarsia knit fabric is most often worked on flat knitting machines, rather than circular ones.
The simplest intarsia knit fabric pattern is for straight vertical stripes. After the first row, the pattern is continued by always working each stitch in the same colour as the previous row, changing colours at exactly the same point in each row. To make more elaborate patterns on an intarsia knit fabric, one can let this colour boundary drift from row to row, changing colours a few stitches earlier or later each time.
The intarsia knit fabric enables you to introduce areas of color in any shape, size, and number to the background. Think of these intarsia knit fabric areas as planets floating in the universe of their background. Intarsia knit fabric is lightweight and fluid because it is only one strand thick. Intarsia pieces are most easily worked flat in rows and seamed.
