knitting projects

How to pass a 4 hour train journey......I went back home to Scotland last weekend and eventually managed to figure out how to do intarsia knitting and think I've just about mastered how to use a cable needle. I've been following patterns but hopefully once I get a bit more practice in I can plan out my own designs. 


These two projects will be cushion covers eventually. Going on holiday to south Africa at the weekend for a few weeks so may get a chance then to work on them. 

This is the video for how to knit intarsia that finally helped me work out what I was doing.
