Quince & Co. rectangle #1 / the scarf

Welcome to The Rectangle Project, a Modern Beginner Knitting Collection by Pam Allen. This collection was born out of my own knitting journey and a desire to demystify the knitting process, as well as put creativity into the knitter's hands. The collection features 11 projects from a simple scarf to a dramatic dress, all based on the concept of knitting a simple rectangle. The e-book guides you through each pattern step by step, building new skills as the patterns progress, with the goal of knitting proficiency when you are finished.

This is a great first sweater. It’s literally four rectangles—back, front, two sleeves. If you can cast-on, knit, and bind off, you’ve got it. It’s a terrific basic that you can really have fun with. You might knit each rectangle in a different color for a cool color block technique or leave the arms short and style it with a classic, white, button down— endless possibilities, so have fun with it.

If you can cast on, knit, and bind off, then you can knit this comfy, chunky cardigan. It's worked as a long rectangle slit halfway down the middle to make two fronts. You won’t believe how easy it is to knit and wear. In fact, we should’ve called it The World’s Most Easiest Cardigan To Knit - but that would have been too long a title!

We love this sweater. It's more fitted than our Rectangle #2 / Basic Pullover and the collar really adds a lot of personality. You might customize this piece by knitting it oversize instead of fitted (going up a few sizes) and adding some length, so you end up with a yummy tunic to wear over leggings.

We are smitten with this dress! Can we take a minute and marvel at the fact that we’re knitting a dress! That is so cool. This piece is a real statement maker, and it is so simple! We did an exposed seam on the body, because we love that detail - you can choose to seam it on the wrong side of the piece if you want a cleaner look.

The inception of designer Pam Allen's The Wren Collection, started with the Clemons pants. Holding two strands of DK weight Wren together, the pants have structure and yet are irresistibly soft and bouncy. The pants are worked in one piece in the round from the waist to the base of the crotch, then the stitches are divided for working the legs separately in the round to the lower edges. The pant legs are shown in a slightly cropped, above-the-ankle length, but leg length is adjustable. We personally love the cropped length as it showcases the unique raw-edged hem.
