Brooklyn Tweed Strago

Alexis Winslow’s stranded mittens feature graphic arrow motifs scaling their length. Worked in a firm, 2-color fabric, the mittens are both warm and refined. Instructions have been included to allow the wrist length to be customized for a shorter or longer mitten. Choose two colors with a high value contrast for a bold, graphic effect as shown, or lessen the contrast for a more understated look. Designer: Alexis Winslow Collection: Wool People, Volume…

These stranded mittens feature two different motifs and can be worn with either side on the tops of your hands. For ease of working, the pattern refers to a specific Left and Right Mitten, though the fit is interchangeable depending on which side you feel like wearing “up”. Latvian braids centered over the ribbed cuff add a unique detail to this classic mitten shape with a side-gore thumb. Designer: Leila Raven Collection: Loft…

This pair of mittens is laden with sculptural cables on the hand and adorned with a simple, textured “sled” stitch on the palm. The two given sizes are achieved by working the same pattern at different gauges. The shaping for the thumb and lower hand is slightly unusual: unlike a traditional thumb gore, Flint’s thumb stitches are already present at the base of wrist. Stitches are increased on both hand-top & palm to shift the thumb outward in a diagonal direction for a comfortable, anatomical fit.

The Woodruff mitten pattern is symmetrical for each hand — the only difference between Right and Left mitten is the placement of the “Afterthought Thumb” (see colored brackets in Woodruff Chart for placement of thumb stitches). If bobbles don’t suit your fancy, they can be easily omitted by substituting each Bobble symbol on the chart for a purl instead. Designer: Jared Flood Collection…

These stranded mittens feature graphic diamond shapes on the top of hand and an allover chevron pattern on the palm. Worked in a pair of classic greys, they are sure to go with just about any color in your wardrobe. Thumbs are shaped via a side gore construction for a snug, anatomical fit. When you have increased to the full amount of thumb stitches you will place this section waste yarn, returning later to work the thumb separately from the rest of the hand portion.

These pretty mittens are a study in nuance, featuring two pale shades of natural wool, a beautifully subtle striping sequence and a long, shaped cuff for perfect fit. The mittens are made fingerless with an optional flip-top that is held in place with a single button on top of the hand. For a plain mitt version, simply ignore the flip-top section of the pattern.

These classic colorwork mittens offer a great canvas for playing with color! We were drawn to a tone-on-tone combination of natural browns and greys, but brighter and more colorful combinations are also enticing. Although 4 colors are required for the pattern, you will only ever be working with 2 colors on any given round. Beginning with a ribbed hem, the mittens are worked circularly from the bottom up and feature a side-gore thumb. Designer: Leila Raven Collection: Spring…

Get ready for winter fun with bright, warm mittens and a matching cap. The Pinwheel set can be customized to any taste—work it in a binary palette or go exuberant with a paintbox of hues; add cords and pompoms to snug the cuffs and decorate the hat or keep them simply unadorned. The mittens are given in a single child’s size; the hat pattern is written in small and large children’s sizes. Knit in Loft and charted separately for two colors or five colors, Pinwheel is a good choice for those new to stranded colorwork or for veterans with a stash of remnants to use up.

Inspired by old-growth forests and hinterland thickets, the Grove mittens feature intricate twisted stitches to create a visually engaging relief pattern. Knit stitches are worked through the back loops to create sculptural texture, while twists create mirrored spirals on the cuffs. The wandering vines on the hand do not require cabling, but are instead shaped by carefully-placed yarn overs and decreases. Knit a pair in Arbor to let the stitches sing proudly, or in Shelter for a subdued effect that mimics moss-covered brambles. Designer: Jared Flood Collection…

These colorblock mittens are like a knitted jigsaw puzzle. Worked sideways in garter stitch with a simple intarsia technique, the graphic garter stripes create a staggered, interlocking pattern on the hand. A decorative seam is used at the center of the palm, while cuff and thumb are worked circularly as “afterthoughts”. We chose a tonal combination of greys for our sample, but can think of plenty of tempting color combinations that would look just as fetching. Designer: Véronik Avery Collection: Winter…

A panoply of texture greets the wearer of the dynamic Limn mitts. Evoking the roping thickness of jungle vines, these bold fingerless mitts derive their three-dimensionality from the artful juxtaposition of clever stockinette welts and humble garter stitch. Designed with practicality in mind, welts twine exclusively across the back of the hand, leaving the palm flat for a more comfortable grip. Offered in three sizes, garter stitch’s natural flexibility ensures a forgiving fit for all your loved ones.

These stranded mittens feature an allover geometric pattern on the hand, and a modified Norwegian “lice” filler on the palm and thumb. I was so inspired by this intriguing color combination, with its strong complimentary undertones. The rich, golden Hayloft has a base of orange flecks that combine harmoniously with Truffle Hunt’s underlying shades of blue. This cool brown really makes the colors pulsate together. We encourage you to experiment with your own color combinations! Designer: Jared Flood Collection: Loft…

Light and lofty brioche stitch makes the ideal wrap or lap blanket. Douro explores the possibilities of traveling lines in brioche, wandering from symmetry to asymmetry and back to regular ribs. The two halves culminate in a band of garter stitch fused at the center spine with the Joinery Bind-Off. Worked from written instructions, this pattern is a good way to step up from basic brioche knitting. Designer: Norah Gaughan Collection: Winter…

James Dean goes to Amsterdam. This brioche masterpiece is part cardigan, part bomber jacket—a debonair outer layer for the transitional seasons. Large faux cable motifs swirl from hem to shoulders and deep pockets add vintage appeal. Modified drop shoulders ensure a neat fit despite the roomy styling, and extra-long sleeves are designed to be turned back at the cuffs. Designer: Véronik Avery Collection: Men Volume…

Corrugated texture provides a trellis for twining cables at the center front and back. Hague sports a boxy silhouette with a bateau neck and exaggerated drop shoulders that create a chevron detail where the welts meet at the seam line. This pullover is a quick knit in chunky Quarry, and the bold texture of this garment means the motifs won’t be lost in our darker colors. The sample is shown in Slate, but Lazulite and even Obsidian would be handsome choices, too. Designer: Michele Wang Collection: CAPSULE | Michele…

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. The front bands are picked up and knit after shoulders are seamed. The sleeves are knit flat and set in.

“I liked designing this poncho with a little more structure; the turtleneck, seamed sides and armhole openings will make certain this poncho doesn’t twist around or become too fussy to wear. The allover cable and lace stitch motif make it quite the fun knit and a statement piece.” – Michele Wang Designer: Michele Wang Collection: Fall…

Shelter marls make the simplest fabrics eye-catching, and exposing the pebbled texture of the purl side only heightens the effect. The Mossbank pullover adds ribbed edges in a coordinating solid color as a grounding accent. Tailored shaping with set-in sleeves, a generous neckline, and just enough ease for layering make this sweater the kind of simple basic that quickly becomes indispensible as a wardrobe anchor. Mossbank is worked flat and seamed, with the neckband knit in the round after assembly. Designer: Kerry Robb Collection: Wool People, Volume…

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.

Slim columns of ribbing punctuated by cabled leaf-and-berry motifs garland the garter stitch surface of Everill. A meditative knit for long winter evenings, Everill is worked flat and then joined to form a generously sized cowl. Knit it in fingering weight Peerie for elegant drape and softness, or for extra coziness and quicker knitting, choose springy Arbor or soft wool-cotton Dapple , both in DK weight—just the thing when gift deadlines await.

For gorgeous gift knitting, try Willamette, a deeply textured scarf with a reversible motif of cabled diamonds over garter stitch. There’s a chart for the A side and another for the B side; alternate knitting a row from each and you’ll end up with a beautifully patterned fabric that’s different but equally arresting on both sides. Willamette is active knitting with cables on every row, but the geometric motifs are predictable and easy to track. The pattern can be worked in Shelter for oversized coziness or in Loft for a scarf of more traditional scale.

Traditional knitwear meets modern architecture in Kinsella, artfully exploring texture and scale with its deeply angled raglan construction and juxtaposed columns of stout and slender cables, balanced by the boxy, unisex silhouette. Set your personal stamp with your choice of cropped or classic length body and sleeves — woolen-spun Shelter or Tones keep Kinsella comfortably light from plush folded collar to trim ribbed hem.

A boxy, open-gauge cardigan in Quarry: the ultimate in slouchy comfort that doesn’t sacrifice good looks. Riverbend’s hem is shaped with short rows so that the back is several inches longer than the cropped fronts. The deep V of the neckline makes it easy to layer. All pieces are knit flat, and we chose to assemble them with the purl side facing out, but instructions are also given for exposing the traditional knit side if you prefer. Two options are given for resolving the short rows so that they’ll be least visible on the public side of your garment, whichever side you’d like that to be.
