Nougat Kerchief

Learn to Knit Intarsia Colorwork!

Looking to take an approachable, baby step into this challenging technique?

The Nougat Kerchief is a small, versatile project that gives you a chance to learn the fundamentals of intarsia with a little safety net built in. Have fun with color, texture, and probably some yarn you already have in your stash.

In this on-demand class, we'll work through Nougat by Aimée Gille together while learning how intarsia actually works, how to choose an intarsia method that makes sense for you, and how to troubleshoot when things don't go exactly as planned.

We'll also use a "gauge as you go" approach to customize the size of your kerchief and talk about how to make the pattern work with different yarn weights.

In This Class You'll Learn

  • The fundamentals of intarsia knitting

  • Different intarsia methods and how to choose the one that works best for you

  • Intarsia best practices and troubleshooting

  • How to read an intarsia chart

  • Increasing and decreasing in pattern

  • Gauge as you go

  • How to resize the kerchief

  • How to adapt the pattern for different yarn weights

Why Nougat?

Nougat gives you a manageable project for learning the basics without committing to a huge colorwork project. And because you're working with multiple colors and can use yarn from your stash, there's plenty of room to experiment.

We'll also focus on how you can take what you learn here into your next intarsia project.
