Designer Knitting Pattern
If you want the fun of creating a truly unique tie, Brad is the one for you. The concept for this two-colored interwoven creation is simple. The strip of the tie that is typically hidden behind the wider portion in front is showcased when laced through six small horizontal slits. The seed and linen stitches are combined with what are in fact extended buttonholes resulting in a tie that is fun to knit. The color change occurs under the collar, so the result is intriguing and the person who wears it ends up with a delightful conversation piece hanging from his neck…or yours.

This pattern includes a list of all abbreviations and a glossary of terms. It is accompanied by our proprietary StitchSaver™ Row Checker. Plus, a link is provided to Knitting Help on our web site.

Here is a pattern with four designs in one. Both the tie and complementary pocket square are double knit designs.

Complimentary StitchSaver™ Row Checker

Designer Knitting Pattern
The CoBaSi blended yarn includes elastic nylon, which results in a very snug stitch pattern when knitted tightly. The results are ideal for double knitting and for creating a tie that can easily be tied without stretching and distortion. The polka dot pattern provides an even attachment between the two layers of stockinette. And the color pairing provides nice options for suits and for casual sport coats. The pocket square is the final fashion touch for the gentleman, or lady, who enjoys just a hint of dandy in their wardrobe.

This scarf is a bit deceptive. It looks more difficult than it actually is.

Using only knit and purl stitches that shift sideways one stitch each row rather miraculously creates this irresistible zigzag pattern. While the design was written for HiKoo’s wonderful CoBaSi+, The weight, warmth, drape and even length are all up to you. So, be creative try any of our cashmere, alpaca, cotton, merino, llama or linen yarns and design your interpretation of this simple yet stylish scarf. We’re certain you’ll get lots of compliments.

Meet Sherlock. Inspired by the legendary Mr. Holmes and his renowned houndstooth print hat, our scarf is a modern take on the classic print.

The softest cashmere from Inner Mongolia is knit in the round, there is no wrong side. So, the fact that the yarn floats are invisible is no mystery. The result is a scarf that is luxurious and timeless and even perhaps worn by Sherlock, if he could have had one.

Here’s an easy knit tie pattern you may be tempted to wear with several things in your closet.

Designer Knitting Pattern
It is knitted in garter stitch at a tight tension for a clean, minimalist look with a modern pop of color. The pattern’s evenly spaced decreases made in the middle of select rows are virtually invisible, so your finished tie has clean edges without evidence of the necessary decreases. And as a bonus, two skeins of yarn typically provide enough yardage to create two ties, if you like, with the color sequence reversed. Knit one for your man and one for you!
