Colorwork refers to a technique used to knit patterns in multiple colors; it requires the simultaneous use of several different colors in the same row. Colorwork is used for sweaters, hats, scarves and mittens, but also a wide range of accessories (cushions, Christmas stockings or coasters). An understanding of colorwork paves the way to integrating a vast range of knitting motifs: horizontal, vertical, geometric or stand-alone.

Anna’s patterns are designed to be, above all, relaxing for the knitter; they are written in a clear manner, accessible to beginners, and are also size inclusive. Anna does the hard work of demystifying this traditional knitting technique so that it no longer holds any secrets.

Author Biography

Anna Dervout launched her blog 'Along with Anna' (www.alongavecanna.com) to share her sewing and knitting projects, before hosting clear, detailed tutorials, then creating her own patterns, which are available on Ravelry. 

Passionate about crafts since she was a child, Anna became an independent knitwear designer in 2017. Knitting quickly became for her not only a passion but a way of life. Never without a project on her needles, Anna is constantly brainstorming new pattern ideas and using beautiful yarns that inspire her. Anna's choices of yarns are ethically sound; they respect the environment and animals.

Anna runs a shop in Exeter, UK; she has an Instagram following of almost 40,000 (@along.avec.anna) and her YouTube channel Along avec Anna has 13.8k subscribers.

Anna's goal is to share her knowledge and skills with the knitting community in an ethical, respectful and friendly way.
