From Knitter’s :
Learn a new intarsia technique to knit one of these colorful, eye-catching designs. Using the “sliding loop” technique and a variegated yarn with long color repeats, we show you how to create columns of interesting color-stacking patterns that are joined without seams.

“I couldn’t resist the great colors of these yarns. I knew exactly what I would make with them to demonstrate my sliding loop technique. This method of knitting color blocks one at a time is a new take on intarsia construction that may inspire you to design your own intarsia creations. Stretch your knitting horizons and give it a try - these sweaters are fun and unique pieces to knit and wear.”
