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…

In true Norah Gaughan fashion, Arris is a geometric, reversible wonder that looks more complex to knit than it really is. Pieces are worked flat from the bottom up, with drop-stitch and openwork mesh elements fitted into the pullover’s stockinette fabric, all beautifully rendered in fingering-weight linen Sparrow.

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 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…

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…

Knitting sideways opens up new possibilities. This cabled cardigan begins at the cuffs and grows toward the center line, exploring lateral texture and negative space. Braided horseshoe motifs play across the body and dolman half sleeves but leave the shoulders intriguingly accented by the calm of reverse stockinette. Details like garter stitch cuffs turned at an unexpected angle and an exposed bind-off at the center back highlight the unusual construction, while a continuous band of garter stitch makes a clean and practical finish to the fronts.

Annex is a shapely masterpiece, featuring lace and dropped stitch flourishes, plus godets at the hip. Norah’s flair for unique construction is apparent in this Kestrel tank top, worked in one long piece beginning at the front’s lower edge from the bottom up, over the shoulders and back down again to the back hem—with the godets (side panels) cleverly worked along the way.

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.

Few stitch patterns provide as much satisfaction as simple knit-and-purl combinations, especially when worked in a plump, round yarn like Stone Wool Corriedale. The contrast between purl bumps and flat Vs stands out nicely. This pullover started out as a kind of sampler, with same-size bands of the different stitch patterns, but it ended up using an elongated check pattern for the entire body and a smaller broken rib pattern in the yoke. One never knows where an idea will lead. If you love knit-and-purl patterns as much as I do, feel free to substitute your favorites for the ones in Dunedin.

The history of the dust jacket can be traced back to the mid-19th century as a means to shield books from dust and wear. As the 19th century progressed, publishers began to recognize the potential of the outer book cover as a promotional tool. For two more centuries, the dust jacket would continue to evolve and remains one of the most collectible assets of a book. The Dust Jacket Kit pays homage to its humble beginnings. The jacket body is worked in our sweet Chickadee using the linen stitch. The piece can be customized to fit your most treasured literary masterpiece.
