Pattern
Our favorite sporty sweater has been re-imagined in luscious Basis fingering weight. The pairing of two variegated yarns that were meant to be united almost guarantees compliments when you finish this project.

The sleeves and body are knitted separately in stockinette, then sewn together to create a classic crewneck. Both the upper body and sleeves are worked flat from the top down to the bottom of the armhole. Then the lower body and sleeves are worked in the round from the armhole to the cuff and hem. Tackle this modern version of a classic sporty sweater and you’re sure to have a homerun.

Pattern and StitchSaver™ Row Checker
This pattern includes a list of all abbreviations, glossary of terms, and a crisp schematic with dimensions for proper blocking. It also comes with our unique Row Checker. A tool you can use to help keep track of your stitch count, row number, increases, and decreases. Throughout the pattern you’ll find indicators of when to refer to your Row Checker.

Yarn
Trendsetter’s Basis, Fingering, 75% Micro-Fiber Cotton, 16% Wool, 9% Cashmere

This very light and very special blend. Microfibers of cool, soft cotton, wrap around a blend of resilient wool   cashmere to add a luxurious glow. It provides clear stitch definition and has a delightful hand when knitting, because while being cotton based it knits like wool. And last but not least the color variegations include some subtle touches to elevate the sophistication of your finished work.

The on-screen color representations for yarn may not be precise representations of actual colors due to variance in monitor calibrations.

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

    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.

    With this designer pattern create a single stripe cowl with the amazingly simple helical striped knitting technique. Fall in love with working single row stripes without jogs or floats.

    Designer Knitting Pattern
    The Amelia cowl begins and ends with ribbing. The rest of this project is worked in the helical striping technique. There are no jogs in the alternating single-row stripes. And there are no floats on the wrong side. Both sides are distinctive and equally beautiful, so the cowl is reversible. It is like two cowls in one.

    Designer Knitting Pattern
    When I discovered the helical knitting technique, I couldn’t resist designing an entire collection of patterns. It is a remarkably simple way to work 1-row, 2-color stripes in the round. Magically, there are no jogs and no floats on the inside. In this case it is applied to an equally simple fingerless glove pattern. It amounts to a tube with generous bands of ribbing at each end and thumb hole in the center. Fold the ribbing over to reveal the fingers, or keep it closed to keep them warm. How’s that for simple?

    This designer knitting pattern is worked sideways in ribbing and drop stitches. You’ll be pleasantly surprised, by this open, airy summer tunic or wrap.

    Designer Knitting Pattern
    Charlotte was created for Solo Lino, the amazing recycled linen yarn that is soft, silky and oh so drapey. This pattern was named after Charlotte Amalie on St. John in the US Virgin Islands, because when it is worn the pattern opens revealing waves, reminiscent of the island’s beaches. This beautiful tunic that can be dressed up or down over tights, shorts, a skirt, or maybe silk evening pants. The tunic pairs two matching squares, front and back with no neck shaping because the fabric drapes naturally. If you prefer a summery wrap just knit one long piece and voila, you have a dreamy new addition to your wardrobe.
