Brooklyn Tweed Seacoast

Joji Locatelli returns to Wool People—her Seacoast pullover was a popular favorite from Volume 7—with an easy top-down sweater dress featuring graphic wide stripes. Mimic begins with shoulder shaping and is worked flat to the underarms, then circularly to the single-ribbed hem. Customize the length by trying the garment on as you go; you can crop it at any point to suit your own style. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the dropped shoulders, shaped with short rows, and worked circularly to the ribbed cuffs.

Architectural and completely modern in shape, this cropped pullover is a compelling knit and an eye-catching addition to any wardrobe. The front, back, and sleeves are simple quadrangles worked flat and seamed to achieve a wide, swingy shape with an open neckline and snugly fitted three-quarter-length sleeves. The interplay of twisted ribs, cables, and traveling stitches yields a fabric that wants to move and fold, and clever placement of each element creates flattering lines on the body.

Dress up or down in a classic V-neck pullover distinguished by lush textures. Designed to fit with several inches of ease, Spinnaker layers comfortably over work wear or casual tees. Forking cables embedded in a field of cluster stitches on reverse stockinette keep the knitting engaging, but the motifs are easy to read and memorize. Though the body is worked straight to the armholes, the cables create flattering lines and give the suggestion of waist shaping.

Welcome the weekend in a casual top-down pullover worked in fisherman’s rib. Joji always finds a way to put a playful, transformative touch on a classic garment; here a brocade of basketweave cables accents the raglan shoulders. Lorient is worked top down; after a tubular neckband and set of short rows to raise the back of the sweater, circular knitting and a straight torso let you relax into the meditative rhythm of the stitch pattern. Single-rib edge treatments finish Lorient in understated style.

Distinctive side and shoulder details make this reverse stockinette pullover fly true. Narrow columns of crossed stitches travel up the sides and beneath the sleeves to flow into the raglan lines at the yoke, with tendrils of crossed stitches joining the confluence to form a striking pattern. Fletching is worked in Shelter from the single-ribbed hem and cuffs upward, entirely in the round and from written instructions only. Long lines and waist shaping make this pullover elegant as well as comfortable.

For dreamers and designers, a pullover that’s equal parts strong and sensitive. This straight-body version of Jared’s popular Oshima (Shaped) pattern (designed as a shaped A-line version in our Fall 2013 collection) uses double-stranded Loft to create a cozy brioche yoke. Decreases for the arm holes and neck opening are set in from the edges to form echoing curves like rake lines in a zen garden. The sweater is knit in the round from hem and cuffs to underarm, then the yoke and sleeve caps are worked flat.

"This bold pullover uses a unique decrease technique to highlight the strong architectural lines of the ribbed raglan yoke. Worked from the bottom up, the straightforward construction provides knitters with sizing and proportion options on both body and sleeves, making it easy to create the fit that’s just right for you. The deep 2x2 ribbed yoke begins below the chest level for a flattering overall proportion and the pullover’s plain stockinette lower section, and simple 1x1 ribbed trims keep the focus on the beautiful shaping details of the yoke.

This lightweight pullover features a simple but beautiful texture pattern, created with tuck-stitch columns arranged over a reverse stockinette background.

In a compelling balance of geometric linework and openwork, Rivulet reminds one of the languid swaying of seaweed under water, swirling schools of fish, and rippling coastal bedforms.

“This pi shawl gracefully blends Elizabeth Zimmermann’s traditional construction with fresh textures. While many pi shawls employ only lace patterns, this one focuses on rich texture and motion, drawing the eye from the center outward and then around the circumference of the circle as the chevrons point the way. The stitch patterns used are very simple and can easily be memorized, but the resulting fabric is mesmerizing.” – Andrea Rangel Designer: Andrea Rangel Collection: Wool People, Volume…

A bold Icelandic-style yoke printed with a spirograph of interlacing chevrons is striking on anybody. Spearheads knits up lightning fast in two high-contrast colors of Quarry to fend off the winter chill. We paired Gypsum with Lazulite and Hematite; imagine the yoke in Citrine on a background of Obsidian or marry Slate with Sandstone for a mellow contrast. Reversing the dark and light colors should be equally successful. Choose single or double rib for the hem, cuffs and neckband according to your liking. Pattern includes unisex sizing.

“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…

The subtle simplicity of Maki calls for a closer look, which reveals that there is more to this design than meets the eye. The flattering A-line silhouette is accented by rows of welts on the back yoke for satisfying texture that also peeks out and around to the front of the shoulders, like angular epaulettes. The rolled neckline, garter stitch trims, and notched vents at the hems serve as balancing counterpoints that echo the framing of the back yoke. Wear Maki as a year-round layering piece with beguiling elegance.

Leander begins with twisted rib, morphing into a traveling current of brioche rib shaped to follow a sinuous course by a combination of decorative increases and decreases. This directional shaping also lends gentle curves along the scarf’s outer edges, fluidly framing the neck and the shoulders when draped. Worked in woolen-spun Shelter, Leander makes for a gratifying combination of tactile indulgence and lofty warmth. This scarf is worked in two pieces, each from the cast-on edge to the center; the pieces are then joined. The long edges are finished with a knit-in I-cord edging.

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.
