A handsome tunic with a picture of an Akita knit into it.

Work this knitting pattern in stockinette stitch. To create the picture knit, which is also known as intarsia, you simply change yarn colors using a separate ball of yarn for each change, and you’ll find the instructions for this in the pattern. The tunic sweater pattern allows you to work the charted design onto a beautiful garment. However, you can use the charted design when making other things such as pillows or afghans, so long as you use worsted weight yarn.
