What you need to know

Play around with striking shades in Julia Howe's fun sweater

We often find ourselves unable to decide which colour to use for our next make, but this gorgeous garment has the answer: go technicoloured! The geometric block pattern is worked using the intarsia method - just give the strands a twist at every colour change so you don’t get any holes. We think the roll-neck is a lovely touch and a super cosy choice for colder days.
