Brooklyn Tweed Flint

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.

This pair of stranded mittens is worked with two colors. The sizing of your finished mittens will be achieved by your stitch gauge. Using different yarns and gauges as specified in the Pattern Blueprint will yield the proper dimensions for your chosen size. The mitten patterning is reversible — the same pattern instructions/chart are used for both Right-hand and Left-hand mittens. Designer: Jared Flood Collection…

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 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.

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.

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…

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 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…

”I have a real soft spot for twisted stitches. With a sleight of hand, you can turn the simplicity of a knit stitch into something ornamental and three dimensional. In this design, the simple cabled motif on the back of the mittens gives them a special handcrafted feel. Holding two strands of Loft together will create a fabric with great elasticity and stitch definition.” – Michele Wang Designer: Michele Wang Collection: Winter…

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 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…

“This pi shawl gracefully blends Elizabeth Zimmermann’s traditional construction with fresh textures. While many pi shawls employ only lace patterns, this one focuses on rich texture and motion, drawing the eye from the center outward and then around the circumference of the circle as the chevrons point the way. The stitch patterns used are very simple and can easily be memorized, but the resulting fabric is mesmerizing.” – Andrea Rangel Designer: Andrea Rangel Collection: Wool People, Volume…

Coastal knotwork intersects academic cables in Chenier’s elegant composition. Innovative braids frame the central iterations of this elevated vest, creating balance between the high tucked-rib neckline and the swingy split hem.

"This shawl developed around a cable that I couldn’t get out of my head, and when its meandering tendrils are turned upside down they bring to mind complex, interlocking root systems. The garter stitch top and bottom borders lend visual grounding, but a sense of upward movement as well to counter the downward-tangling cables.

The Tilda Cardigan takes a great basic shape and embellishes it with whimsical details. The column of eyelets along each side seam begins at the hem and flows directly into the raglan lines on both fronts and back. The stockinette button band is flanked on either side by a pair of simple cables, while the garment’s body and three-quarter sleeves are trimmed with an optional contrasting color rolled edge. The generous scoop neck begs to be styled with shirts featuring interesting collars (or cowls).

Inspired by the slanting angles of warm summer sunlight, Wyden is awash in three-dimensional texture.

Written and charted for budding and experienced knitters alike, this voluminous triangular shawl is warm and cozy in Arbor’s squishy Targhee wool.

"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.

“The inspiration for Loess came from my life on Île de Ré, an island off the west coast of France — very wild and natural, with a little smell of sea spray. This stole is light, soft, and worked with bands of crisply defined patterning.” – Christine de Castelbajac Riffles of openwork and crossed stitches punctuate the smooth surface of stockinette in this elegant, modern scarf. The pattern offers two sizes, a small scarf and a generous wrap.
