Intarsia is a term from woodworking for inlaying different types of wood into a piece to form a design. Instarsia knitting is a multi-colored knitting technique where you have multiple live strands of yarn active as you work. The yarn is usually wound on small bobbins and hang from the back of the work as you go along. The key to getting a good look to your knitting is to wrap the strands of yarn around each other as you change colors, this prevents holes from forming.I use the Intarsia knitting technique to create the picture designs I use in my handmade doll clothes and handmade bear clothes that I sell at my website. I use the Fair Isle technique when putting names on sweaters, as I find its easier than running mutiple threads at once.You can see three of examples of my work in my logo. All of my intarsia knitting is done by hand, but there are knitting machines that are designed for intarsia knitting in mind. It can be a much faster and easier way to create multicolored designs, if you can master it. You can learn more about Knitting Essentials by purchasing tutorials like this one.

Bamboo is a naturally eco-friendly fiber that requires no pesticides or fertilizers to grow. It is also extremely replenishable. Bamboo is strong as steel, but when spun into a fiber, it becomes as soft as silk. It is a natural luxury yarn ideal for knit and crochet garments.

I have always been fascinated with Model Railways but unfortunately I have never had the space to make my own.
Model Railway building is a hobby that can engulf a lifetime if done right. Building a layout can take years if done correctly, its not just as simple as buying a train set and putting the track together as there are many other things to consider like landscaping and proper track layout.
I have created this video showcase to show you the reader how good model railways can look when they are finished. Enjoy.
