Geometric design collides with bold colourwork in the new Tidy Haus pattern collection from Paintbox Yarns! Channeling the Bauhaus design aesthetic, these six easy knitting and crochet projects are here to zhush up your home (and keep things tidy at the same time!).

Inspired by the Bauhaus movement

A collision of surrealism, expressionism and colour theory, the Bauhaus movement sparked a new kind of creative vision in Europe in the 1920s

Typical Bauhaus design features balanced forms and abstract shapes, without the fuss. (A recipe for an Instagram-worthy home, of course!)

Each pattern from the new Paintbox Tidy Haus collection pays homage to the artists and iconic examples of Bauhaus design. Through these simple and modern DIY crochet and knitting projects - you can bring a touch of avant-garde design to your living room.

From the bright Benita Nesting Baskets to Amsel Storage Box, each pattern is named after its Bauhaus muse. From wonderful weavers Anni Albers and Benita Koch to painter Lena Amsel and Marianne Brandt. The Dessau Tote is a tribute to one of the school’s original locations in Dessau, a hotbed of creativity for the Bauhaus movement.
