Alexis Winslow chromia

Alexis creates another head-turning design with the Vallo cowl, knit in our luxurious, DK weight Phoebe yarn. An entertaining project from start-to-finish, it features graphic, all-over colorwork and interesting angles. Its generous silhouette slips over one or both shoulders and fits comfortably around the neck for a divinely cozy effect. Worked from the bottom up, its central decrease causes the piece to grow smaller as you knit. And with every completed round, the momentum builds—you won’t be able to put this project down!

Top it off with an optional pom pom, for a final splash of color.

Unwind and keep warm without abandoning your modern sensibility. Alexis Winslow is known for her bold, graphic designs, and here she’s turned a cozy, short-sleeved batwing coat into a striking statement piece. Despite its generous dimensions, Escher flatters the figure with a colorblock triangle as the slimming focal point and deep ribbing that slants across the hips. The back is worked sideways from a provisional cast on and shaped with short rows; the fabric is then joined to work each sleeve cuff in the round.

Cushy and cozy, Kirsten’s playful pullover features rich garter stitch fabric that’s worked sideways in one piece, from cuff to cuff.

Bias pinstripes appear to flow into each other in the Runnel scarf and cowl, adding an architectural twist to the classic garter stitch accessory. The scarf has crisp lines and elegant drape when knit in worsted-spun Peerie yarn, and added texture and size in woolen-spun Loft yarn. The cowl has enough length to double up for more coziness when temperatures dip. In fingering weight gauge, both the Runnel scarf and cowl provide stylish warmth without excessive bulk.

Knit a lace stole or a large cowl from the same pattern of diamonds and rhombuses in shifting textures – knit, purl, garter. Both versions of Prism are knit from end to end, and the motif is intuitive to work once established, with lace maneuvers on right-side rows only. Bands of garter stitch divide the cowl into panels, one of which conceals the graft where the ends meet. Vale’s palette offers both bright and nuanced hues to create a spectrum of Prisms that will suit any wardrobe. Designer: Natalie Servant Collection: Wool People, Volume…

The on-trend silhouette of the Collomia pullover offers a dramatic canvas for a timeless stranded colorwork yoke.

With seams only at the underarms and knit at a worsted gauge, Collomia is just as alluring to knit as it is to wear. Knit from the bottom up, the front and back of Collomia are cast on separately for the split hem, then joined knit circularly in one piece. The colorful yoke is worked in the round.

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).

The broad stand-up neck not only adds structural integrity but also pays homage to the form of Jomon pottery vessels. This pattern is also available as part of Artisan Collection: Keiko Kikuno .
