Beautiful Hand Knit Vintage Sweater.
What is Hand Intarsia?
Hand Intarsia is a traditional knitting technique; the term meaning ‘inlaid by hand’.
The yarn is laid onto the needle bed of the machine, colour by colour to create a clean, refined pattern without carrying floats on the back of the design.
This technique has a rich heritage found in the Scottish Borders, incredibly time-consuming processes in which the detail and precision can only be achieved by hand.
