At the junction of agile stitchwork and intuitive fun lies the richly textured Cetus Hat. Here you’ll find a balanced combination of garter stitch and mock cable columns — rather like gilded onlay — growing out of slip stitch ribbing and cable trusses to converge into a relaxed slouch and rosette crown. And for those of you who enjoy clever tricks in your toolbox: a round of knits bisects the ribbing to form a crease that helps the brim turn up for comfortable double-warmth at the ears.

Perfect for round, springy yarns with exceptional stitch definition, this hat’s clever stitch pattern mimics woven basketry through the creative use of knits, purls, and yarn overs. This is one of those stitch patterns that gives dramatic results despite using only the most basic of knitting stitches! The deeply textured fabric is balanced with a doubled-ribbed brim that adds squishy comfort and a substantial base for the woven textures that grow from it.

Instructions are both written and charted, delivering a stunning hat that is accessible and alluring. Knit from brim to crown in Arbor and all your work will shine with three-dimensional texture and crisp stitch definition highlighting each whorl; alternatively, work Lollylob in Dapple for a softer, gentler look.

“Conceptually, I wanted this hat to be as big and chunky as possible – making a statement without becoming a helmet. I kept adding more and more strands of yarn (ultimately using four) to achieve just the right fabric I was after. A turned-hem brim and simple cable repeat completes the look. You can wear this hat pushed back to create some fashionable slouch or pulled down snugly over the forehead for more warmth.” – Julie Hoover Designer: Julie Hoover Collection: Fall…

" This sweet hat pattern features a delicate, geometric stitch worked in two colors that reminds me of little kites. The small bi-color diamonds are formed using a unique ‘dip’ stitch maneuver that creates a subtly textured fabric with tiny eyelets that keep the fabric breathable and light. The hat can be worked in child or adult size, and styled as a standard beanie or blocked over a round form (like a salad plate) for a beret variation. The star-shaped crown design integrates seamlessly into the Kitelines stitch pattern for a sophisticated finish, regardless of your chosen variation.

This classic hat, which features a large cabled braid over a field of Garter Stitch, comes in two sizes: a smaller version (which can be finished in a traditional Tam shape) or a longer, slouchy version. The 2×2 ribbed brim integrates directly into the plaited braid and the crown shaping occurs in concentric rings (similar to a round-yoked sweater) for a clean finish.

Enjoy texture, both quiet and luxurious, with the Treefolds Hat. Allover cables developed as a modern take on traditional Tree of Life cable patterns is the highlighting feature of this stately hat. Trees abstracted into diamonds are created by zigzagging cable panels placed next to each other in mirroring directions. Blending seamlessly with these cable crosses are fully-fashioned double decreases at the crown, which result in a uniquely geometric design at the top of the hat.

We love Carrie’s knack for creating chic, must-have accessories that have simple and intuitive construction. Her warm, cabled cowl is no exception. The piece utilizes the beautiful stitch definition achieved when holding a fingering-weight yarn doubled. Knit simply, like a scarf, the cowl is joined into a loop during finishing by way of a 3-needle Bind Off. The cabled braid that adorns the cowl features an unexpected detail: the garter stitch ground overtakes the traveling stockinette stitches during cable crosses on the RS.

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.

"This quick-knitting cardigan makes the most of round, multi-ply yarns with smooth definition. The chunky gauge of the fabric turns up the volume on the many knitterly details stashed throughout the project. A simple allover garter rib pattern forms the basis for strong architectural shaping details, all of which are worked with decorative double-decreases that keep the rib pattern unbroken throughout and highlight unique design lines. The compound raglan yoke creates a comfortable fit through the shoulders and the easy-to-work stand-up collar creates a cozy finish.

This rectangular lace stole is worked in two separate halves. The first half is cast on at the outer edge and worked in towards the center. After the first half is complete, stitches are put on a holder and the second half is worked in the same manner as the first. After both halves have been completed, the live stitches from both sides are grafted together invisibly using Kitchener Stitch. This directional method is used so that lace motifs are vertically mirrored on both halves. Designer: Jared Flood Collection…
