Sometimes (and what is February if not one of those times) we want our knitwear to be like a cozy, elegant hug: sweaters that are easy to wear, that go with everything, that keep us just warm enough for these waning days of winter’s chill. Summit is one of those sweaters. Its modern drop-shouldered silhouette is effortless and forgiving, its lo...

Straightforward, understated, wear-with-everything garter stitch on the front gives way to dramatic, shifting cables across the back and sleeves of this tailored cardigan, designed in mYak’s glorious Baby Yak Medium. Worked mostly in garter and at a worsted gauge, this ultra-wearable cardigan knits up quickly, while the garter-and-cable fabric ...

Graphic, rhythmic cables adorn the back of this cozy shawl-collared cardigan, which is packed with knitterly details and ready to be an essential part of your fall and winter wardrobe. The front and sleeves are worked in stockinette, making for a lighter, more free-flowing fabric on those parts of the sweater while concentrating both the physic...

Soothing to knit and easy to wear, Larkspur shows that cables and summer can be a match made in heaven. Rhythmic columns of cables—built out of simple 2x2 crossings—add texture, interest, and shape to this modern drop-shouldered tee. The easy-to-memorize cable chart forms a kind of impressionistic optical illusion: up close, the cables pop off ...

Over the next two months, we’re having a little knitalong for the Mapleshade sweater, on my blog, on Instagram, and in my Ravelry group. We’d love to have you join us!

Sumptuously textured and generously sized, Seal Cove is both soothing to knit and soothing to wear! The shawl grows from an easy stockinette beginning in an asymmetrical triangle shape, opening out to a subtle shifting rib pattern, with delicate columns of knit stitches radiating out across a reverse stockinette backdrop. Seal Cove’s practical,...

Warm, light, and sumptuously textured, Sheridan Square is just the thing to add a pop of color and hint of warmth to your spring wardrobe. Alternating panels of wide-wale ribbing and double seed stitch add visual interest and soothing texture, balancing out the fluidity of a drapey two-ply luxury yarn. Sized to add just a touch of warmth, Sheri...

Cascading chevron cables wind their way up and down the body panels of this bold, graphic cardigan, a lighter-weight, dressier cousin of my Aran-weight Angwin Cardigan. A wider, steeper cable adds even more visual drama, while the subtly variegated shades of YOTH’s ultra-luxurious Big Sister base add depth and dimensionality. A DK weight yarn m...

Stranded colorwork has an addictive quality to it: you say you’ll just knit a row or two here or there, but the mystery of seeing what the next row will look like pulls you in. Just one more row! Just till I finish this repeat! you say, ending up late for…pretty much everything. Here, that addictive quality gets an added boost from a color-chan...

A Gansey-inspired welt-and-rope-cable pattern adorns this luxurious cowl, which tapers gradually from top to bottom. Worked in the round in YOTH’s gorgeous Big Sister DK base, a merino-cashmere-nylon blend, Port Angeles is light enough for transition-season wear, but with enough wooly coziness for the heart of winter. Its size and shape are gen...

Dense, rhythmic cables in a geometric layout adorn the fronts and back of this opulently cabled cardigan, a modern, tailored riff on a knitterly classic: the densely cabled winter-white sweater. Angwin takes a simple idea—the 2-over-2 cable—and uses it to create a bold, graphic allover texture. Here, multi-step cables add drama without a great ...

Columns of an intriguing cable-and-lace pattern separated by wedges of stockinette radiate out from one end of these elongated trapezoid shawls, written in two versatile sizes. Simple increases build width in the stockinette sections to shape the shawl, which grows gradually over its 62 (83)”+ of length. Luxuriously warm, delicately textured, a...

Bold, dramatic cables cascade out of 2x2 ribbing into three ribbed spines that meet at the top of this modern, fun-loving toque. Worked in an aran-to-chunky weight yarn, this hat is a quick, engaging knit, with something for everyone: an engaging cable chart, a meditative reverse-stockinette section, and easy-to-work shaping to bring it all tog...
