Brooklyn Tweed Chainlink

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.

With the arrested energy of bound movement, dynamic lines of motion careen in concert down the length of Nourse. Crosshatches of angular ribbing powerfully converge in punctuated chevrons that guide the eye across its supple Shelter fabric. The ideal complement to the Fehling pullover, this graphic scarf is both subtle and striking, with two sizes to suit your preference.

Cocoon in a fabric at once quiet and expressive. Putting humble knits and purls to good use, Watermark exhibits a harmonious meshing of easy to love (and accomplish) textures: grid stitch, furrowed ribbing, and classic one-by-one ribbing. Nestled in between each are panels of geometric cables, branching to form chevron diamonds that shine when the light hits just right. Contemporary construction details designed to flatter, like modified drop shoulders and gentle waist shaping, marry fabric, pattern, and shape all together — the patch pockets don’t hurt, either!

Perfectly highlighting a whimsical silhouette with an Escher-esque textured yoke, the Railfence pullover is both a city and a country mouse. Will yours be pleasing in pastel, or perhaps radical in red?

Wrap yourself in wooly warmth as you head off for your favorite trailhead. Notch reminds us of deep and narrow mountain passes, with slipped stitch columns creating high relief ridges aloft a valley of knit and purl stitches. Knit in Quarry, this wrap will surely keep you warm though the openness of double yarn overs worked in the fabric will hinder overheating as you wander the wilderness. A simple two row-repeating pattern makes Notch a perfect trailside companion. Designer: Norah Gaughan Collection…

The lattice cables form an allover pattern on the sides and sleeves, creating an attractive directional shift at the drop shoulders.

“Who doesn’t love and need the comfort and simplicity of a long sleeved, crew neck T-shirt? Especially a T-shirt enhanced with a Lattice Pattern Stitch for textural detail. This fun-to-knit lace stitch creates an interesting border that contrasts with the Stockinette Stitch of the body fabric. The garment’s silhouette is slightly A-lined in both Sleeves and Body, adding a bit of ease below the waist, for a casual, comfortable fit. Loft is the perfect yarn for this design, offering a weight that transcends seasons.

The highlight of this tailored, square turtleneck pullover are intriguing center panels of textural collage at both the front and the back.

Made for meandering amongst the autumn leaves of a university lawn, Hartigan echoes the rise and fall of brick eaves and wrought iron. A runic alphabet of raised texture breaks the plane of stockinette smoothness, perfectly articulated in Peerie ’s plump stitches. Distinctive finishings in the rolled cuffs and collar enhance Hartigan’s angular motif. Designer: Norah Gaughan Collection: Domino + Square Share on social…

Knit a floaty open-front cardigan to layer over dressy or casual outfits as you enjoy the last of the soft weather. This study in the intersection of curved and angular lines uses innovative seamless construction to form a strikingly graceful back. The graphic garter rib elements shift and slope with precisely placed decreases, and an unusual bottom-up construction brings the fronts up and over the shoulder to create a strong central spine of joinery bind-off, like the wales of a boat meeting at the keel.

“Wearable – this is always my biggest consideration when I set out on a new design. After swatching with Loft at a looser gauge I knew there was a winner in the making. A comfortable, wearable, oh so squishy winner. This design is truly seamless, apart from one small seam at the back of the neck. The collar is worked concurrently with the body, giving the garment almost no finishing. A slight flare to the body and straight sleeves lend themselves toward making this a ‘live in it’ essential that I hope you’ll love.” – Hannah Fettig Designer: Hannah Fettig 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.

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.

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…

A ribbon of zigzag lace with a yarnover selvedge forms the foundation for this pretty triangular shawl. Stitches picked up from the yarnovers take a few steadying ridges of garter stitch while decreases are established at the edges and spine, then begin to intermingle in a traditional two-sided lace pattern before relaxing into an ever-diminishing field of garter. This perfect balance of focused effort and straightforward plain knitting has made Rock Island an enduring favorite in the Brooklyn Tweed archives. Designer: Jared Flood Collection: Classics ; Vale…

"The thick strands of both Arbor Lodge and Quarry are ideal for oversized cables and this quality was the starting inspiration point for this vest. Invested with a heavy dose of classic fisherman sweater vibes, these cables are plumped up to an almost cartoonish degree, and lend a light-hearted air to an easy-going layering piece." — designer, Lis Smith Quarry Barn Owl sample photographed with Grooves Cap by Jared Flood.

Both Masons use ridges of a contrast color interrupted by slipped stitches for a woven effect that’s eye catching but simple to execute. A funnel shape improves the fit, and single-rib tubular edges provide an elastic and professional finish. Designer: Julie Hoover Collection: Winter…

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.

Rhythmic all-over cables in Shelter produce a handsome, seaworthy cap that’s quick and satisfying to knit. After a short band of 1 x 1 rib, the hat breaks into a geometric motif of interlocking tiered cables. Perfect for knitters who have tried some basic cables and feel ready for more challenge, the charts are predictable and easy to memorize. The pattern includes a modification for a slightly shorter beanie length. Deep texture means the pattern won’t be lost in dark colors, so this design is a good choice for Cast Iron, Soot, Artifact, Old World, or Plume.
