Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
A shawl is a many splendored thing: Short, long, triangular, rectangular, or crescent; light and lacy or substantial and cozy. Heriot belongs in the latter category. This generous, crescent-shaped shawl is worked from a garter tab that sits at the neck to the ribbed border. Stone Wool Corriedale is perfect for this kind of shawl. Its plush and ...
Knitting: Pullover
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 usi...

Pam loves a little pointed cap. This one, in Cheviot, is warm and cozy, and decorated with two simple Fair Isle patterns, one in red, the other blue. With one skein each of three colors, you could work up multiple versions by swapping the colors. The brim is worked in cushy garter stitch instead of a standard rib for a relaxed fit and lots of w...
Knitting: Cardigan
A swingy jacket with pockets and a little collar makes a nice alternative to the traditional cardigan. Garter stitch in heathery Cheviot is just the right stitch for this piece, allowing soft heft and the perfect amount of drape—not too much, not too little. Windham would also look great in two colors, knitting a contrasting color as a strong b...
Knitting: Pullover
How do you top a Cheviot yarn worked in a single pretty color? You knit two colors together for a do-it-yourself marled yarn. This swingy pullover knits up super quick on a large needle with two colors held together. It’s worked from the top down, of course, so once the yoke is complete, it’s clear sailing because there’s no shaping at all on b...
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
By combining flat, knitted stitches with purls you can create all manner of stitch patterns, simple all over patterns or larger motifs that might spread across an entire sweater. But even the simplest combinations, as in Naseby, can make striking textures when worked in a plump yarn like Corriedale. This little hat is worked from the crown down...
Knitting: Mid-calf Socks
Garter stitch is the ultimate cushy knitting, soft and buoyant. It’s the perfect stitch for warm and cozy slipper socks. Edievale Socks start at the toe, so they are super adjustable in length. The simple edging in a contrast color gives the socks a little character. Save a few yards of the main color, and when you’re done with the first pair, ...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Worked in soft and lofty American Romney + Merino, this cushy, crescent-shaped shawl makes a lovely neck or shoulder wrap. The piece is worked point to point in garter stitch (what could be easier?) with reversible cables knitted in as you go along the edges.
Knitting: Pullover
Autumn Forest is a beautifully reimagined take on the classic raglan sweater, designed with our soft and long-wearing Romney + Merino (shown here in Quartz 02). Knitted from the top down, Eri’s sweater features a bateau neckline and simple crossed stitches that run down the length of the sleeves, adding both movement and structure. A textured l...
Knitting: Pullover
Delaine Merino is a perfectly-summer wool. It’s soft and buoyant and knits up successfully on needle sizes from US size 2 to 11 2.75 to 8 mm, depending on the kind of fabric--squishy and dense or open and airy--the pattern calls for. In Tamworth, a large needle makes for a floaty summer pullover, airy enough that light filters through the fabri...
Knitting: Cardigan
One can never have enough garter stitch. In this swingy open cardigan, garter-stitch borders are knitted in as you go. The body has slight A-line shaping, and the extended shoulders are slanted with short rows and joined with wrong sides together using the 3-needle bind off. The back neck is narrow, so the cardi stays put, even without buttons....
Knitting: Pullover
A basic pullover knitted from the top down, beginning with the ribbed neckband. The front neck is slightly dipped via a few short rows. Raglan increases are worked as yarnovers on the increase round then worked as twisted stitches on the next. The sweater’s simplicity is offset by deep, double-rib borders at cuffs and hem. Lots of stockinette a...
Knitting: Pullover
Alba is a wear-it-all-the-time pullover, it’s roomy and comfortable. The body is worked from the bottom up, starting with the split hem, which is edged at the sides in tidy garter stitch. At the underarm stitches are cast on for sleeves, and the yoke, a hybrid raglan and saddle shoulder, is knitted in one piece to the neck. For sleeves, stitche...
Knitting: Beanie, Toque
When I first held a skein of the 3-ply version of our Gulf Coast Native, I knew I had to make something with cables. The yarn’s round, plumphand begged for strong dimensional stitches. So I used a large double cable alternating with one of my favorites, a single column of Honeycomb stitch. With this much going on in the hat proper, I gave it a ...

This little cap, worked in a sport weight, 2-ply version
Knitting: Cowl
In urban settings it is easy to see nature working to break down what has been created by humans. Weeds slip through cracks, tree roots break concrete, and soil shifts to move foundations. In this design, the stockinette section represents the human effort to control nature and create order. A line in the design is moving over like a vine or a ...
Knitting: Cowl
The sinuous tracery of Perpetua is inspired by the growth of plant life around old buildings, such as cathedrals and Ivy League colleges, and the peaceful irony of such places—where the natural and the man-made grow old side by side. The rustic but refined hand of Corriedale Aran reinforces this atmosphere, providing definition to twisted stitc...

The perfect pattern for handspun, or an unknown stash-diving yarn. This hat pattern works for any yarn type at any gauge. The black hat is handspun yarn created from Stone Wool’s Farm Roving in Quartz 03, the gray hat is Stone Wool Cormo in Shale 01 and Scoured Wool, and the burgundy sample is Quince & Co’s Puffin in Barolo

Knitting: Mittens
Twisted rib cables intersect to create overlapping diamond leaves on these substantial mittens, which fall mid-forearm length. Mittens are worked from the bottom cuff up, with a leaf cable motif on the front, and stockinette on the palm.
Knitting: Pullover
Flattering a-line shaping and split side hem offer a modern silhouette to a classic sweater. This sweater pattern offers two additional cable motifs which can be substituted for the cables shown in the sample. Knitters can also substitute the center purl section of the sample sweater with two additional texture patterns. Worked from the top-dow...
