As knitters, we are constantly seeking simplicity and harmony. Knitting has a quiet, soothing cadence to it. Making each stitch is a straightforward and orderly process.
Even the most complicated cabled sweater has its own sort of simplicity. The stitch patterns have tidy, logical rhythms, and every stitch is thoughtfully placed. Nothing is left to chance. Designers combine patterns and stitches that complement each other to create a beautiful garment. And while we also experience difficulty in the form of dropped stitches, miscrossed cables, and accidental yarnovers, we use these as opportunities to learn new ways to fix our mistakes.
In this collection, we focused on simple, everyday elegance with an added element. These nine sweaters were designed to be classic pieces that are relaxing and enjoyable to both make and wear. Designers Donna Estin, Zanete Hussain, Susanna IC, Lana Jois, Renate Kamm, Fiona Munro, Nicole Reeves, Emily Ringelman, and Courtney Spainhower designed stunning projects for knitters who
