Brooklyn Tweed Bracondale

Delicate cables form decorative oak leaf medallions to paper the extra-wide fabric of this poncho-like pullover. On a ground of reverse stockinette, the cable motifs stand in relief like woodblock carvings. Side vents and exaggerated drop shoulders give this garment easy style, while a loose turtleneck provides a double layer of warmth around your neck. Birch Bay’s front and back are knit flat and sewn together; stitches for the double-ribbed sleeves and neck are picked up and worked in the round. Tubular hems and chain selvedges ensure a tidy finish everywhere.

Blume is a classic pullover perching serenely in a comfortable spot between oversized and fitted. Its fabric features rippling cables surrounding purls on a predominantly stockinette body, rather like marbled rock or traveling vines. While expressively textured, the allover placement of the cables makes Blume’s fabric appear evenly balanced and leaves enough room for a deep and luxurious folded-over turtleneck to weather the crisp chill. This pullover in Arbor is worked flat, in pieces, from the bottom up, then sewn together. After assembly, the collar is picked up and worked in the round.

A distinctive brioche hem is split and lapped at the front of this A-line pullover for effortless layering. Suspender stripes of textured stitches and three-quarter-length sleeves balance the silhouette for a flattering effect. After the front and back hems are knit separately, the stitches are joined to work in the round to the underarms. The yoke and set-in sleeve caps are worked flat and then seamed, and the simple ribbed neckband is worked on stitches picked up after assembly.

A curved short-row hem and mirrored suspender cables dress up this comfortable pullover in double moss stitch. The cables’ width is graded to match the finished dimensions of the sweater to ensure perfect proportions. The front and back are worked flat from the bottom up, with short rows shaping the hems; the straight torso makes for a long swath of predictable knitting. Set-in sleeves are knit circularly to the armholes and then completed working flat for a tidy fit and a stable finish. The ribbed neckband is worked to double length and then sewn down inside for a strong and elastic finish.

Worked in plush brioche stitch, the vertical lines of this beautiful fabric create the base for architectural details that highlight the garment’s unique shaping elements. From a distance, the sweater reads as a classic everyday pullover; come closer and you’ll find smartly tailored shoulders and exquisite shaping details that make it feel special. Luxurious (and fun-to-work) knitted welts frame the sweater’s ribbed trims at cuff, hem and neckline, providing comfort and durability.

A plush brioche cowl finishes the distinctive eight-point cabled yoke of this snuggly pullover. Gentle A-line shaping makes Riptide comfortable and cozy. The knitting is seamless, with the body and sleeves worked in the round from the single-ribbed hem and cuffs upward and then united for the circular yoke. Cleverly placed brioche helps to lower the front neck without the use of short rows and smoothly transitions to a cowl knit from the live stitches. Knit in chunky-weight Quarry, this sweater will fly off the needles.

This lapped-front turtleneck pullover in Shaker rib effortlessly blends comfort and simple style. The boxy silhouette is offset by the inverted V of the open fronts, which grow gradually through decorative increases within the rib structure until they cross over the heart. Modified drop sleeves complete the roomy fit. The back, front, and sleeves are knit flat and seamed, with the circular collar worked from stitches picked up through both fronts to unite them. The Shaker rib is crisply defined in Arbor and creates a fabric with drape and movement.

Worked left to right from a provisional cast on, this pullover showcases a single bold cable flanked by delicate eyelets. The gracefully curved back hem and shoulders are shaped as you knit the body, and the three-quarter length sleeves are worked flat and top-down from live stitches. After joining the two sides and seaming the sleeves, the ribbed hem is then picked up and knit to complete the garment.

Wrap up in cozy style. This graphic cardigan translates all the energy and impact of striped triangular shawls into an eminently wearable blanket-front sweater. Skew is worked top down from the neck ribbing, then front stitches are put on hold while you establish the triangle at the back. Then the whole yoke is worked at once, stitches are set aside for the sleeves, and the work continues to the ribbed hem. All the back increases are completed at the center to maintain the chevrons, but balanced by decreases at the sides so that the fronts are not angled.

When your lounging agenda demands serious hygge, it’s hard to beat a shawl-collared pullover in chunky wool. Bingham works up rapidly in Quarry, with the hem knit in a variable rib that sets up engaging panels of cables feeding into a central plait on the front and back. A straight torso and raglan shoulder shaping create a relaxed look without sacrificing good design; the decrease rate shifts subtly to nibble away excess fabric for an anatomical fit. This pattern is part of Michele Wang’s CAPSULE Collection for Brooklyn Tweed.

The thermal pullover takes on a bold new look when rendered at an exploded scale in Quarry. The classic woodsman’s waffle weave forms a geometric grid at this large gauge and is worked from a four-row pattern that’s easily memorized. Deschutes is knit flat in pieces and sewn with partially exposed seams for rustic detail. Roomy sleeves are set in to ensure a tidy fit around the shoulders to balance the straight lines of the torso. Choose a size that gives you no more than 4-5” of ease if you want to keep the shape feminine.

A mossy evergreen forest rendered in textured stitches. Cascades is a classic pullover in Shelter with panels of tree motifs in twisted stitches against a ground of double moss stitch. Columns of tiny, mirrored cables define the shifts in stitch pattern to create flattering vertical lines and pleasing side details. The body and sleeves are worked circularly from the bottom up and joined at the yoke, which is worked in the round until the neck shaping. The twisted-rib cuffs and hem flow beautifully from a rib cabled cast on, a useful technique fully explained in the pattern.

The subtle simplicity of Maki calls for a closer look, which reveals that there is more to this design than meets the eye. The flattering A-line silhouette is accented by rows of welts on the back yoke for satisfying texture that also peeks out and around to the front of the shoulders, like angular epaulettes. The rolled neckline, garter stitch trims, and notched vents at the hems serve as balancing counterpoints that echo the framing of the back yoke. Wear Maki as a year-round layering piece with beguiling elegance.

Kumon is the perfect balance of mindless and mindful and familiar and exciting, encouraging the hands’ second nature by beginning with the well-known rib stitch before seamlessly flourishing into sumptuous half-brioche. Uncomplicated yet thoughtful in shape, this piece is a sure layer to reach for during the cool hours of a misty morning. The garment in Arbor is worked flat in one piece from the bottom to the armholes, then back and fronts are worked separately to the shoulder.

Leander begins with twisted rib, morphing into a traveling current of brioche rib shaped to follow a sinuous course by a combination of decorative increases and decreases. This directional shaping also lends gentle curves along the scarf’s outer edges, fluidly framing the neck and the shoulders when draped. Worked in woolen-spun Shelter, Leander makes for a gratifying combination of tactile indulgence and lofty warmth. This scarf is worked in two pieces, each from the cast-on edge to the center; the pieces are then joined. The long edges are finished with a knit-in I-cord edging.

For knitters who love a geometric puzzle, this study in modular asymmetry will keep the brain and the needles busy. Constructed in squares and triangles worked from the edges inward, Counterpane uses bands of stockinette, garter, and brioche to create three-dimensional texture as well as arresting diagonal lines. Each section is worked on stitches picked up from the previous square and newly cast on. The sleeve cuffs achieve a subtle bloused form by echoing the brioche and garter bands of the blocks.

“This design draws inspiration from both the new and old. I was intrigued by the modernity and drape of an oversized dolman tee, and I also loved the soft femininity of the simple, delicate prints of liberty cotton and vintage summer dresses. This pullover combines the two into the best of both worlds: a gentle, fern-like, allover cable motif joins with a loose and wonderfully drapey shape to create the perfect spring or summer sweater.” – Bristol Ivy Designer: Bristol Ivy Collection: Wool People, Volume…
