Intarsia it is!

After pondering the blanket question and reading the good advice I got, I decided that I should definitely make the border of the baby blanket all yellow and just stripe the feather and fan interior. Here's what I have so far:



What do you think? I'm pleased with how it is turning out. The intarsia is not turning out to be as bad as I thought. What I did was cut a long strand of yellow to do the border on one side and worked from the skein on the other side so I didn't have to keep cutting and adding the yellow yarn every row. Less tails to weave in as well!
