In the hope that other knitters would love it, too, I am releasing it as<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ravelry.com\/patterns\/library\/stumptown-slouch-2\"> a single, free pattern on Ravelry<\/a>.\u00a0 If the pattern instruction on working intarsia in-the-round isn&#8217;t completely clear, working solely from the pattern, check out &#8220;Annetarsia Knits: a New link to Intarsia&#8221;, which also has many other patterns to choose from.\u00a0 (Order from this website for an autographed copy, and use coupon code TEAMANNETARSIA for free shipping!)
