What I Learned

Intarsia in the round just did not work for me (I'll try again someday!). Instead, I did the project using fair isle (or stranded) knitting. After I completed the first row of the pattern, I knit 3 in the main colour (off-white) and then knit 1 in the second colour (blue) and repeat. On the next row, I did the same thing, but I made my second colour knit 1s (in blue) land in the center of the knit 3 in main colour sections below. On the next row, I lined up my second colour knit 1s with where they were on the first row and so on...
