Instructions

Intarsia is generally worked flat and then the pieces are sewn together: depending on the sewing method you can decide to add or not a selvedge stitch. There are some techniques that allow you to knit in the round (where you are still actually knitting with the flat technique and using joining methods). In this case you can use circular needles. If you are knitting flat you might think about knitting the two sleeves together or one at the time.

Sleeves S-M

Cast on 40 stitches (or 42 if you decide to have a selvedge stitch) Rows 1- 18: (k1, p1) repeat to end Row 19 (RS of work): (k1, p1) x 7 times, pm, k13, pm, p1, (k1, p1) x 6 times Row 20: (k1, p1) x 6 times, k1, sm, p13, sm, (k1, p1) x 7 times From row 21 to 60 follow the graph for the stitches between markers (remembering to switch between colors - MC and CC), while before and after the markers follow on odd rows row 19 and for even rows row 20 (the ribbing part of the sleeves).

Row 61: repeat row 19 Rows 62 - 79: repeat row 1 Row 80: bind off and sew the sleeve, weave in ends.
