Combining our Sparrow and Kestrel linens together to create an eye-catching statement in sleeves, Norah’s Gambrel pullover is a really fun piece to knit. Worked flat, center front to center front, its fronts and back are divided to work wide circular openings for the armholes. From there, sleeve stitches are picked up and worked in concentric circles of lace ladders, alternating Sparrow and Kestrel to create the beautiful openwork on its shapely sleeves. A simple crochet trim finishes off the neck and joins the front pieces down the center. Go to Framework…

This piece is a hybrid, combining circular and flat construction techniques to achieve the finished garment—an enjoyable process piece with understated polish. Go to Framework…

Pretty Bower is deliciously clever to knit. Beginning at the bottom edge of the front pieces, this cardigan is worked up, over the shoulders, and down to the bottom edge of the back, with only the sides to seam. A simple length of i-cord adds stability to the open back neck, and leaf motifs grace the cardigan fronts. Go to Framework…

An easy poncho style, Dormer’s basic rectangle construction allows you to concentrate on the dropped stitch and cable patterning—an irresistible effect in a ribbon linen yarn like Kestrel. Convert it to a pullover by simply seaming up the sides; Norah also suggests working more rows on the cuffs if you desire longer, fitted sleeves. We love pieces that allow you the freedom to really make it your own! Go to Framework…

For an engaging knit that takes full advantage of Peerie’s crisp stitch definition, lively bounce, and all-around versatility, try the Ines Pullover. The highlight of this tailored, square turtleneck pullover are intriguing center panels of textural collage at both the front and the back. Half-twisted ribbing, garter stitch, and cable twists each take their turn on backgrounds of stockinette and reverse stockinette to yield a piece nothing short of impressive.

This pretty origami-like piece is an excellent example of how versatile the humble rectangle can be. Worked in alternating bands of fingering-weight Sparrow and worsted-weight Kestrel, the fabric is stretchy and pliable, held in check by Cella’s cleverly applied ribbing. Short rows are used to shape the ribbed border, and Framework includes an illustrated step-by-step process for the yarn-over short row method. Go to Framework…

Sequence knitting can create familiar textured fabrics or break with traditional patterning and take flight in organic forms. This scarf (or wrap, if you opt for a larger scale) pairs alternating charted motifs to form a patchwork of flowing wavelets and more structured pennants. The reversible fabric is subtly different but equally handsome on both sides. Worsted-spun Arbor renders the stitches in high relief, and simple slipped-stitch edges keep the focus on the novel textures. Designer: Michele Wang Collection: Winter…

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).
