Long ago, the only inhabitant of Intarsia was a very lonely Mothership, who didn't even know she could fly!

One day she sneezed a huge sneeze and sho into the air! The Mothership got such a fright that she panicked and began flapping her arms, afraid of falling. But she did not fall.

Instead two little propellers popped out of her cuffs, and lifter her night above the clouds.

'Whirr, whirr', they went at the speed of light.

The Motherhip wooshed up into orbit around Intarsia! Round and round she flew until she was quite dizzy and tired out. She headed for home and her warm, comfy bed, a big, soft, knitted field.
