Intarsia Portrait

[Ansie]

An experiment in intarsia knitting. I used the same pattern I used before for blackwork to make this portrait of my son.
It's not perfect - a lot of tension variation - but it was a good exercise.

you are indeed, talented!

WOW! That looks like a lot of work. I admire your skills.

Keep at it!   ^_~  Tension gets easier the more you do intarsia projects.  You can sometimes use the tails to even it all out during the weaving-in process.

Holy Crap! That is awesome!

Did you try blocking? Apparently blocking intarsia projects helps even out the stitches more.
