Style Glossary: Intarsia
Intarsia
A knitting technique used to create patterns with multiple colors. Also the retail term for sweaters with geometric designs. Fields of different colors and materials appear to be inlaid in one another, but are in fact all separate pieces that fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. Argyle socks and sweaters are normally done in Intarsia.
This Free People Snowdrift Cowl Neck Sweater ($108) is a subtle way to go Intarsia.
