Testimonials

Sophisticated, elegant, stylish, chic. After seeing James’ collection, I may give up needlepoint.

Patsy A.

These designs take men's sweaters to a whole new level of luxury and deliciousness. Might have to get a new man once my divorce goes through, just so I can knit him a James Cox Knits sweater.

Pattern
This cheerful cover-up top is perhaps the simplest pattern possible. A pair of stitches that you repeat to the end of the row, every row. After working front and back the same, seaming them together and finishing with a little crochet trim, you'll have a reversible top with unique color variegation on each side. How's that for fun?

Yarn
Schoppel’s Zauberball Crazy Cotton, DK, 100% Organic Cotton, Eco-yarn

This project will entertain you as the surprising color variations change resulting in a top that is unique on each side. Each of the two plies has unique color variegation so when their twisted together the blending is complex and beautiful.

Pattern
When it comes to a light and airy tunic or summer dress with just a touch of sexy, Michelle could become your favorite. It was designed for Solo Lino, the recycled linen eco-yarn. The pleasantly simple pattern is worked from the top down in one piece with no seams to be sewn. And as you progress the needle size increases 3 times to create the A-line profile and a skirt that has a little swish when you walk. The design is simple, knitting it is simple and the result is simply charming.

Yarn
Lana Grossa’s Solo Lino, Sport, 80% recycled linen, 20% linen, Eco-yarn

This yarn is almost unbelievable. There is none of the stiffness that can be experienced when knitting with virgin linen yarn. Instead, the recycled process results in a beautiful drape that feels soft in your hands. Yet it retains all the qualities that make linen so desirable.

Pattern
It may be hard to decide which is more fun, wearing this wrap skirt, or knitting it. Because it is knitted sideways from one end to the other. The open work stitch pattern is creative, and the overall effect is a delightful little beach or pool coverup. Plus, the pattern is written so you can create a mini-skirt or a longer version to suit your own personal style.

Yarn
GGH’s Reva, Fingering, 95% Recycled Cotton, 5% Other Fibers, Eco-yarn

In our efforts to find eco-friendly yarns, we were delighted to discover Reva. If you’d like to support the growing tend to recycle and reuse in the fashion industry, work with this beautiful, recycled yarn. Its subdued color palette and subtle textured finish creates a casually sophisticated look. So, its soft easy drape will feel good for more reasons than one.
