Pam Allen balsam

We love Maple—it's semi-cropped in the body, it features a cushy brioche collar that hugs the neck, and fitted sleeves and a narrow back neck for a close fit where it counts. The best part of the knitting here is in working two stitch patterns with varying row gauges (brioche and stockinette) at the same time, balanced out by strategically-placed short rows in the trim. This pattern is also available as part of the Plain & Simple collection.

Designer and friend, Jordan Prouty, presents Cera Alba. In our opinion, it might just be the perfect piece for this time of year: warm and cozy when you need it, yet light and adaptable enough to wear throughout the day. Knit entirely in the round, the cowl features a bold cable panel at both the center front and back, framed by wide ribbed sections along the sides. The flexible ribbing allows the cowl to be worn snugly around the neck like a traditional cowl or gently draped over the shoulders for an extra layer of warmth.

This sweet little cowl is a quick piece! This cowl shares the same motif as the Hale pullover and is worked in a slightly heavier weight, providing a little more warmth around the neck. Great for tucking into a coat or keeping the chill off indoors.

Walnut is such a classic cardigan—crew neck, buttons, pockets, long sleeves. And yet, Pam has added just a few details that update the garment to current tastes in knitting and wearing: We love the reverse stockinette stitch in the body, the deep half-brioche split hem with deeper length at the back, the exposed seam along the shoulders, and the modified dolman/drop shoulder construction found throughout the collection that provides an easy fit. Perfection! This pattern is also available as part of the Plain & Simple collection.

The inception of designer Pam Allen's The Wren Collection, started with the Clemons pants. Holding two strands of DK weight Wren together, the pants have structure and yet are irresistibly soft and bouncy. The pants are worked in one piece in the round from the waist to the base of the crotch, then the stitches are divided for working the legs separately in the round to the lower edges. The pant legs are shown in a slightly cropped, above-the-ankle length, but leg length is adjustable. We personally love the cropped length as it showcases the unique raw-edged hem.

A trip to an iconic Fifth Ave, New York menswear shop brought about an idea for a classic rib beanie worked in luxurious, semi-bulky, yet lightweight Osprey yarn. Adding one (or two) stitches in the wide rib all around can change the style back to a man's hat (where you borrowed it from his shelf in the first place).
