StitchSaver Row Checker

"It is hard to make a mistake with our unique complimentary Row Checker. It helps you keep track of stitch count row-by-row for each section of the pattern, plus all increase and decrease shaping. With check off boxes for each row you can put this project aside for a week, a month or a year and return to the exact spot where you stopped."
- James

Pattern
Here is a project that uses the simplest stitches, garter and stockinette, in an imaginative way to create a pattern that is fun and rewarding. Knitted top down starting at the neck, with increases along the four raglan seams, two colors are alternated to create a yoke crafted in very small stripes. The lower body and sleeves are worked in stockinette and finished with narrow bands of garter. Stitches are then picked up around the neck and the seamless hood is worked in garter stripes to match the yoke.

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.
