Keep your hands warm during chilly morning walks with the Marquam mittens. The fully faced cuff of this classic ski-style accessory, charted for three sizes, wards off even the stiffest of breezes while adding stability to the ribbed outer fabric. Choosing your colors for this project will be a joy as Arbor’s breadth of jewel tones and soothing neutrals lend themselves brilliantly to the spherical colorwork motif, which can be worked in either two or four colors.

These pretty armwarmers are a great wardrobe item for layer-lovers! They’re a great way to keep your wrists warm when knitting (or typing) in chillier conditions, too. We think they’re the perfect antidote for when the colorwork bug comes a’biting, and a great project for new knitters to try their hand at stranded knitting.

This scarf uses a special Tuck-Stitch pattern (a cousin to Brioche Stitch) to create an extra squishy (and reversible) fabric – perfect for wrapping up in on cold winter days. Holding two strands of Loft together results in an aran-weight yarn that is incredibly light and offers beautiful stitch definition. The length of the scarf has been designed for versatile types of wear: wrap it twice for relaxed drape, or thrice for a layered cowl fit.

Koto’s futuristic drop-shoulder silhouette and high-relief texture contrast with the traditional woolen-spun loft of Shelter and Tones to create a thoroughly modern pullover. Slender articulated ribbing accentuates the dramatic short-row-shaped hem, while trim facings at collar, cuffs, and hem make for a beautifully minimalist finish.

A beautiful geometric design graces the shoulders of this classic round yoke sweater with sinuous lines and purled acorn caps at diminishing scale. Gentle waist shaping and carefully placed short rows ensure a comfortable fit, and a generous neckline adds to the comely, face-framing effect. This is a pullover to knit in your signature color, and Arbor’s nuanced palette offers ample selection. Designer: Gudrun Johnston Collections: Winter 2018 ; BT…

Keep warm without sacrificing functionality with the elegant pragmatism of the Ballantine mitts. A dense, cabled braid anchors the top of these fingerless mitts, fading to small twists on the palm for fuss-free, everyday use. Slightly elongated cuffs are perfect for tucking into your coat sleeve, while a thumb gusset provides just the right fit — all in Arbor ’s springy Targhee wool or Dapple ’s dreamy blend of Organic Cotton and Merino. Complete the set with the Chenier vest’s matching motif. Designer: Fiona Alice Collection: Grey Coast Share on social…

The double thickness of stranded Shelter or Imbue Worsted makes this toasty neckwarmer proof against spring winds. Morse incorporates traditional Scandinavian motifs in shifting scales, and decreases placed on single-color rounds form a funnel shape for a cozy, anatomical fit. Knit it in two colors for a simple graphic effect, or change colors with each band to put your scraps to good use and create a nuanced or boldly playful accessory. Designer: Michele Wang Collection…

For insouciant style you can dress up or down, Freja is a quick knit with big impact. An open front with a swingy A-line shape and a textured shawl collar make this sculptural piece easy to throw on over any outfit, and in chunky Quarry or Arbor Lodge it’s an ideal cozy overlayer. Add angled patch pockets for the perfect functional accent, and choose either a short or long armhole edging. Designer: Jared Flood Collection: Winter…

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.

This playful, feminine pullover in Shelter features an airy, flared skirt that visually narrows the hips. Traditional lace motifs leaven the classic gansey texture of cables and moss stitch. The body is worked in the round to the underarms; the upper front and back are knit flat. Exaggerated drop shoulders create an embellishment at the upper arm, and since the sleeves are worked downward, the braided cable appears to flow down to the cuff instead of climbing. Short-row gussets with fashioned decreases shape the upper shoulders and neckline.

Tech meets tradition. Futuristic stranded colorwork distinguishes this pullover, knit in two colors of Loft. The pixelated motif of interlocking diamonds creates a gradient shift from dark to light, highlighting broad shoulders (and knitting skills.) Carbon is worked in the round with steeks at the armholes, and the folded contrast hem provides a canvas for an optional secret message: a charted alphabet and numerals are included in the pattern. The set-in sleeves are worked circularly to armholes, with flat caps that are sewn in once the steeks have been cut.

For gorgeous gift knitting, try Willamette, a deeply textured scarf with a reversible motif of cabled diamonds over garter stitch. There’s a chart for the A side and another for the B side; alternate knitting a row from each and you’ll end up with a beautifully patterned fabric that’s different but equally arresting on both sides. Willamette is active knitting with cables on every row, but the geometric motifs are predictable and easy to track. The pattern can be worked in Shelter for oversized coziness or in Loft for a scarf of more traditional scale.

Inspired by the slanting angles of warm summer sunlight, Wyden is awash in three-dimensional texture. Raised ridges of coordinated knits and purls spill forth in energetic bands of zig, zags and lines both parallel and perpendicular. Written and charted for budding and experienced knitters alike, this voluminous triangular shawl is warm and cozy in Arbor’s squishy Targhee wool. Throw Wyden over sun-kissed shoulders at the end of a long day and drink in a striking sunset. Designer: Victoria Burgess Collection: BT Summer Share on social…

A snuggly cowl with simple but striking stitchwork makes the perfect deep winter accessory. Tailor Mason to your climate by selecting a double-stranded version for serious warmth or working with a single strand for a cowl appropriate to milder weather. 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…

“One of the magical things about hand knitting is the formation of the fabric at the same time as the creation of the piece. And because of this, the seamless yoked cardigan is something of a magic trick. A long-time favorite among knitters, I wanted to give this traditional silhouette a modern twist with an updated ribbing, but keep some tradition by using nupps. I hope this finds its way into your Fall wardrobe.” – Michele Wang Designer: Michele Wang Collection: Fall…

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. Equally at home penning poems on a craggy coastline as nursing a cup of tea in front of a toasty fire, Chenier works wonderfully into your lifestyle in any of Arbor’s luxe colorways.

“During the design process, my aim was to create a timeless garment containing both traditional and modern features. I chose a diamond motif with moss stitch that I saw in a fisherman’s sweater because not only is it a beautifully textured stitch, but I can also use it either as a single line of diamonds (as in the sleeve) or a line of multiple diamonds (as in the body). Instead of having a traditional vertical line of purl stitches on either side, I used stockinette stitch to encircle the motif to keep the whole design clean and simple. The sweater is knit top down.

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).

This workhorse sweater, embellished with a field of fine cables on the central panels, will see you through any busy day in comfort. The relaxed A-line fit is easy to wear, and slim set-in sleeves and carefully tailored shoulders ensure a polished look. The three narrow panels of the front and back are knit separately, then sewn with an exposed seam for a touch of rugged texture. A classic close-fitting turtleneck in double rib makes Equus extra cozy. Porter black gives this sweater a sophisticated note; a bright autumn hue from the Arbor palette might lift your mood on a cloudy day.

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.

"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.

Driftwood is the perfect knockaround sweater for fall – with an oversized fit, luxurious ribbed turtleneck and a soft, squishable stitch pattern, you’ll love wearing this at home or on the go. Because the Loop Stitch is denser than regular stockinette stitch, you will work the body fabric of the garment on a larger-than-average needle for a worsted weight yarn; this is necessary to create the supple cushion-like fabric that makes this sweater so irresistible.
