A trip to an iconic Fifth Ave, New York menswear shop brought about an idea for a classic rib beanie worked in luxurious, semi-bulky, yet lightweight Osprey yarn. Adding one (or two) stitches in the wide rib all around can change the style back to a man's hat (where you borrowed it from his shelf in the first place).

Clever use of elongated stitches in faux cables forms the unique pattern in this worsted weight blanket, designed by Zabeth Loisel Weiner. Geometric shapes using knit-purl textures and the appearance of figure-eights from the faux cable (which does not require a cable needle to work!) give this classic design its name.

It's really hard to go wrong with broken rib—it's always such a pleasing texture. In Dale, Elizabeth has used it not only in the split hem, cuffs, and short funnel neck of this pullover, but also in the raglan shaping, which we think is a really cool detail.

Alexis creates another head-turning design with the Vallo cowl, knit in our luxurious, DK weight Phoebe yarn. An entertaining project from start-to-finish, it features graphic, all-over colorwork and interesting angles. Its generous silhouette slips over one or both shoulders and fits comfortably around the neck for a divinely cozy effect. Worked from the bottom up, its central decrease causes the piece to grow smaller as you knit. And with every completed round, the momentum builds—you won’t be able to put this project down!

Need a good project for some comfort knitting? Look no further than Tamworth by Pam Allen. Worked in softer-than-soft Stone Wool Delaine Merino , this lovely pullover is a breeze to make. On a larger-than-usual needle, it comes together quickly and makes for a pleasantly light and airy garment. And we can't get enough of its long and luxurious puff sleeves (eat your heart out, Anne of Green Gables!). Shown here in Scour (white), it would be lovely in any of Delaine Merino’s rich colors.

My knitting designs begin with the intersection of three factors: a yarn I want to knit with, a stitch pattern that is appealing to look at and entertaining to knit, and an item I want to add to my wardrobe. For this shawl the textured stitch pattern caught my interest first, along with the idea of colors alternating in two-row stripes; then came the shape of the shawl, relatively shallow with longer tails for wrapping or tying; and finally the gloriously bouncy Chickadee yarn. Often when I start to work on a design I run into a surprise, a problem or unexpected discovery.
