Brooklyn Tweed Vanora

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.

The casual comfort of a cozy raglan is elevated by unusual construction and bold cables that ascend the torso on the bias to create flattering lines. Wake is worked in pieces of irregular shape—the back with a wide hem that wraps around to the hipbones and forms a graceful curve worked with short rows, the front narrow at the waist with an incisive V-neck—and then seamed to achieve a raglan style with an asymmetric hem that’s higher in the front. The edges are left almost raw for clean, simple finishes. Designer: Véronik Avery Collection: Fall…

Crisp, gansey-inspired texture animates the fabric of this handsome V-neck vest in Arbor. An all-over welted rib motif yields to rope cables and chevrons on the upper torso; wide purl gutters delineate the sides. The work begins in the round, then divides at the armholes for flat knitting to the shoulders. Single-rib tubular edge treatments, worked circularly after shoulder seaming, make a polished and professional finish. The pattern is written with slightly tapered or straight options for body shaping. Designer: Jared Flood Collection: Fall…

Scandinavian-style colorwork applied to a thoroughly modern shape makes Galloway an eye-catching piece that’s engaging to knit and pure fun to style. The exaggerated deep V of the open fronts can be overlapped and belted closed or left to hang in sculptural freedom. Trim raglan shoulders keep the fit tidy and stable above. Worked in the round with a steek, this pattern teaches and hones advanced knitting skills. The single-ribbed edge is picked up and worked after cut edges are secured, with a tubular bind-off to match the tubular cast-on at the hem and cuffs.

Slantwise texture distinguishes this timeless V-neck cardigan. A directional lattice of cabled ribs is mirrored on the fronts, but slants across the full width of the back to create unexpected asymmetrical movement. Celyn’s stockinette sleeves are set in, with fully fashioned decreases to elegantly shape the caps. The elongated silhouette is shaped with a gentle A-line for a comfortable, flattering fit. As handsome over button-downs as it is cozy over pajamas on a lazy Sunday, this versatile cardigan in Shelter has wardrobe staple written all over it.

Allover texture and an A-line shape give this Loft pullover effortless style. A subtle Eye of Partridge pattern—usually seen in sock heels—lends interest to the skirt and sleeve fabric, while a garter slip stitch creates a woven effect for the bodice. Vela begins with the front and back yoke worked flat; stitches for the lower body and sleeves are picked up purlwise to expose the selvedge and worked downward in the round. A delicate neckband is worked in slipped-stitch stockinette after seaming. The result is a graceful, seasonless layering piece that’s easy to dress up or down.

This lightweight pullover features a simple but beautiful texture pattern, created with tuck-stitch columns arranged over a reverse stockinette background. The wide ribbed hem and cuffs align with the columnar motif, as well as the garter stitch neckband which maintains the unbroken line of stitches as it is worked. An empire waist and flared sillhouette create a figure flattering shape, while wider shoulders and a shallow sleeve cap contribute to a relaxed feel in the yoke.

Set-in sleeves and waist shaping update the traditional boxy gansey for women who prefer a sleeker fit. Both yoke and upper sleeves are textured with a spare, high-relief, industrial pattern that recalls beams, trusses, and grating. The reverse stockinette body and sleeves are knit circularly to the underarm, then all pieces are completed working flat and sewn together. An open, minimally finished neckline and a light fabric of Loft make Breslin great for layering over collared shirts.

Worked left to right from a provisional cast on, this pullover showcases a single bold cable flanked by delicate eyelets. The gracefully curved back hem and shoulders are shaped as you knit the body, and the three-quarter length sleeves are worked flat and top-down from live stitches. After joining the two sides and seaming the sleeves, the ribbed hem is then picked up and knit to complete the garment.

“To give the basic Aran pullover a little pizzazz, I added the bias cables on the front and back pieces. They add interest not only by changing the flow of the cables, but by changing the entire silhouette of the sweater. The biasing gives the slightest hint of a peplum and accentuates the waist naturally. And to keep the femininity, the neckband is a soft rollover versus a traditional ribbed neckband.” – Michele Wang Designer: Michele Wang Collection: Fall…

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.

“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.

“Stranded colorwork always seems so appropriate for the Winter season to me. The patterns created by the two colors are so festive, brightening up those late winter days that can be so dreary. The floats on the underside create an incredibly warm fabric making this turtleneck the perfect sweater for those sub-zero temperatures!” − Michele Wang Designer: Michele Wang Collection: Winter…

“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.

Shelter marls make the simplest fabrics eye-catching, and exposing the pebbled texture of the purl side only heightens the effect. The Mossbank pullover adds ribbed edges in a coordinating solid color as a grounding accent. Tailored shaping with set-in sleeves, a generous neckline, and just enough ease for layering make this sweater the kind of simple basic that quickly becomes indispensible as a wardrobe anchor. Mossbank is worked flat and seamed, with the neckband knit in the round after assembly. Designer: Kerry Robb Collection: Wool People, Volume…

A ribbon of zigzag lace with a yarnover selvedge forms the foundation for this pretty triangular shawl. Stitches picked up from the yarnovers take a few steadying ridges of garter stitch while decreases are established at the edges and spine, then begin to intermingle in a traditional two-sided lace pattern before relaxing into an ever-diminishing field of garter. This perfect balance of focused effort and straightforward plain knitting has made Rock Island an enduring favorite in the Brooklyn Tweed archives. Designer: Jared Flood Collection: Classics ; Vale…
