Pacman Cap
A custom Pacman graphic design in Intarsia. This thing is a pain to knit, what with all the colour changes, but it looks great!

The pattern itself is fairly basic: a rib section, followed by stockinette. The colour knitting was done using a mix of Fair Isle and Intarsia techniques based on a pattern I sketched out on graph paper, using the original sprites as the source. It was primarily done in the round, with the colour section done back-and-forth, then the seam sewn up.
