– Intarsia crochet: Color work technique where yarns are switched to form a drawing. Each area of color is worked separately, without carrying additional colors in between the stitches or leaving floats on the back side, creating a double-sided project. Yarn bobbins are used to work each section.
Before starting, wrap GREEN, PINK and GREY yarns around each yarn bobbin.
