Damn intarstia

I had to knit this blankie for my son. Yup, I had to.

There are 18 freaking sheep on it done in intarstia! I can't figure it out how to knit it with the ends failing about like they are. I can't stop and and weave in every end every row because well, I'll go insane. Completely insane.

I went to ask the lady at my LYS for help and she got snippy because I'd hadn't taken her 'intarstia knitting' knitting class. :irked If i had the time or the money to, I would have. Basically, she said I screwed. Thanks for help lady. Don't worry I'll order my yarn from Theresa or Jess from now on. So ha!

But I'm even more determined that Gavin have the sheep blankey. Damn intarstia.

When you drop thread a, wrap thread b with it, then pull it fairly tightly and put it in the right hand, using the fingers that are already holding the needle. Or.........tie a semi loose knot after the first changed stitch. I forget the name of the knot, but you just put one end over the other twice, nothing complicated. When you are all done, go back and loosen the top knot of each set, adjust your tension, adn weave the ends. Or carry the nonworking yarn, adn you wants have so many ends anyway.
Pssssst, we sell yarn too :devil
