This is in response to a couple of questions I had on the Good Morning thread, about the making of the pictured throw. I started it during lockdown, and had a knitting book on intarsia. I'd done Fair Isle before but intarsia was new to me. You end up with lots of different baubles of wool. It helped pass time, especially as I live on my own.
I can attach a picture of the book I used if anyone is interested. There is no applique on the throw - it's all knitted except for the pocket where the monkey is peeping out. That's a square cut from a child's dress I bought in a charity shop.
Once I'd made all the squares I decided to make them into a throw for my granddaughter's 5th birthday next month.
