Intarsia Knits - Anna Husemann

From German textile designer Anna Husemann, Intarsia Knits is a paperback knitting book for intermediate makers ready to move beyond the basics and explore bold, multicoloured knitwear. Centred on the intarsia technique, it guides you step-by-step through working with multiple balls of yarn and joining fields of colour, before inviting you to put your skills into practice with a collection of projects designed for all seasons.

Inside, you’ll find 12 projects for size-inclusive garments (UK 4–34) and accessories, including a sweater, top, scarf, tote bag and mittens, supported by full-colour knitting charts and detailed instructions. The book also explains the difference between intarsia and stranded colourwork, and shows how intarsia can be combined with other knitting techniques. Along the way, Anna shares her approach to developing designs, encouraging you to experiment with colour combinations and make each piece your own.
