add to wish listDescription
“Magic Loop’s” hand dyed yarns with their wonderfully saturated hues were the inspiration for “Roksolana”.
Crescent-shaped shawls are always versatile, but this long-stretched narrow version, ideal for draping around the neck, makes this classic shape even better.
The combination of stitch patterns, including slipped stitches and a cheerful pebble pattern, interspersed with relaxing garter stitch, looks especially well in bright hues on a neutral background.
“Roksolana” was designed in collaboration with Magic Loop.

Motyle - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Summer is peak butterfly season with warm, sunny weather that sends colorful creatures fluttering through our gardens.
Why not take a closer look at them? Let’s grab a lawn chair, a mojito and your favorite cotton-linen blend, and start knitting a summer tee brimming with butterflies.
“Motyle” (Polish for butterflies) is a simple summer tee with an elegant twist. It is knit seamlessly from the top down with short-row neckline and shoulder shaping. Plenty of increases on both front and back make for a smooth, pucker-free transition between the butterfly shoulder strip and the main part of the garment.
The tee got its name from the intricate butterfly-shaped lace pattern featured on the shoulder bands, with a matching detail at the bottom of the front. Hem and sleeve edges are worked in double knitting for reinforcement and to prevent the fabric from rolling.

Eilean - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Eilean” (Gaelic for island) is a top-down seamless sweater, combining the best of yoke and raglan construction for an ultimate fit. Its slightly bell-shaped sleeves are comfortably wide, but not in the way, and the all-over texture makes this garment an entertaining knit. With a small amount of simple fair isle knitting on the yoke – just enough to be decorative, but not as much as to be intimidatingly complicated – it is a good project to get acquainted with colorwork in the round.
“Eilean” sweater is knit in our “Delicious” yarn – a gorgeous blend of baby alpaca, silk and cashmere that is pleasant to work with, and equally pleasant to wear.

Fluorite - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Faded knitwear is still very popular, not to mention great for using up single skeins!
This loose-fitting seamless sweater, worked top down with unconventional overlong trumpet sleeves, is your canvas to play with colors.
With the stitch pattern, born out of improvising with increases, I came up when I wanted to create something more intricate, with a unique color scheme and an interesting texture that would appeal to the wild girl in every knitter, too.
Here, you can turn the general idea and technical recommendations for blending colorways into your very own color adventure in knit. Detailed fading instructions are included on page 4 of the pattern. It is up to you to decide whether you’d like to work this garment in one color, emphasizing the texture of the pretty twisted ribbing lines, or from the minimum of three to as many colors as you like from your riotous remnant basket.

Torun Shawl - digital knitting pattern - PDF
We do have a strong knitting community in Poland. Organized knitting meetings are very popular, with knitting friends meeting for coffee, chatting, and of course knitting together.
Every year in September, two of my friends, myself and our respective husbands collaborate in organizing an annual knitting meeting held in Toruń, called “Drutozlot” (Needle Rally), where we host knitters from different places in Poland, and even a few participants from abroad. We also invite talented Polish indie hand dyers to attend so knitters can buy their yarn.

Boxed and Cabled - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Open-front cardigans are my favorite ones because they are so versatile – and never too tight to close! I found this intriguing cable pattern on the internet and liked it so much that I decided to develop a whole garment around it – here it is:
“Boxed and Cabled” is a boxy cardigan with a broad horizontal cable strip starting at the center back and continuing all over the sleeves. Work begins with the cable panel, then stitches for the back are picked up from the edge of the cable strip, and the back is continued down to the armholes, after which stitches for both fronts are picked up at the top edge of the cable panel, working here, too, down to the armholes, where the parts are joined and worked together down to the hem. When the body is completed, sleeve stitches are picked up, and the sleeves worked down to the cuffs. This cardigan is comfortable, versatile and interesting to knit – all of it, of course, completely seamless!

Schwarm - digital knitting pattern - PDF
3 skeins of “Ysolda Blend no. 1”, bought last year at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival, with its great stitch definition, seemed perfect to revisit and further develop the feather pattern that has intrigued me ever since designing “Be Confident” cowl.
Transferring this very expressive stitch pattern into a flat item with visible beginning and end proved to be a rather interesting endeavor, since it now sported wavy edges.
And so “Schwarm” 1 was born, a shawl knit from its tip to the wide part in this feather pattern that now looks like a school of fish moving in unison, with a textured section trailing behind like stirred-up water!
The shawl is fully reversible and can be made in any size, any yarn weight.
The thicker the yarn, the bigger the fish!
Materials:
* Ysolda Blend no. 1 (50% Wool – Merino, 40% Wool – Polwarth, 10% Wool - Zwartbles): 100g/ 345 yards [315 meters]. 3 skeins or approx. 790 yards [725 meters] of any sport weight yarn that knits up to gauge.
- US 4 [3.5 mm] 40” [100 cm] circular needle
- Tapestry needle
One size fits all:
Finished measurements: length (outer edge): 63” (160 cm); depth: 28.5” (72 cm).
Gauge:
18 sts and 36 rows per 4” (10 cm) in garter stitch after blocking.
Gauge is not essential; however, with a different gauge, actual finished measurements and total yardage will change.

Jurata - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Goddess Jūratė (from the noun jūra meaning the sea) lived under the Baltic Sea in a beautiful amber castle. She ruled the sea and all of the sea-life. A young fisherman named Kastytis was disturbing the peace as he was catching a lot of fish. Jūratė decided to punish him and restore the peace, but she fell in love with the handsome young fisherman. They spent some happy times in the castle, but Perkūnas, the thunder-god, found out that the immortal goddess had fallen in love with a mortal man. He became furious and struck the amber castle. It exploded into millions of pieces. Then Jūratė was chained to either the ruins or a rock on the seafloor by Perkūnas. According to legend, that is why pieces of amber come ashore after a storm on the Baltic Sea. (Wikipedia)
Jurata is a top-down shawl with asymmetrical short row shaping. The lively patterned Japanese style lace border with eyelet/picot edging is knitted on after the body has been finished. It is best showcased in a solid color. The body of the shawl features cheerful star stitch bands that look equally well in a solid, multicolor or long color repeat contrasting color.

Color Me In - digital knitting pattern - PDF
I really like the new coloring books for grownups that have popped up everywhere lately – it’s so relaxing to color in those soothing patterns!
These books have been the inspiration for the whimsy colorwork pattern on the sleeves of this sweater, which is worked top down seamlessly in a textured slip stitch pattern. The double knit hem and cuffs are similar to those known from my “Anthro” sweater. Shoulders with accented shoulder “seams” are shaped with short rows, as are sleeve caps. The sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch with a two-color Fair-Isle pattern near the double-knit cuffs. The colorwork pattern will look at its best in a long color repeat gradient yarn with smooth color transitions, but you can use remnants in different colors, too, if you want to use up leftovers and don’t shy away from sewing in a lot of ends.

Contrasting color (CC): Garnstudio Drops Delight (75% Wool, 25% Nylon): 50 g/ 191 yards [175 meters] – 1 skein or approx. 100 (110, 120, [130, 140, 150], 160, 170, 180) yards 80 (90, 100, [105, 110, 120], 130, 140, 150) meters of fingering weight yarn.

Almandite - digital knitting pattern - PDF
If you like to experiment with colors by knitting a sweater, and ordinary fading is not enough for you, it is also worth to try marling.
Marling is one of the easiest methods of colored knitting – all you have to do is connect two strands of yarn in different colors. However, if at the same time each one of the yarns is of a different fiber blend and structure, and you change every few rows to a new color, you can get a unique piece of knitwear with exclusive colors.
This is the method I used in the “Almandite” sweater.
“Almandite” is a classic and elegant open front cardigan knitted from the top to the bottom in one piece with two strands in different colors held together. To achieve smooth transitions and extraordinary colors, the strands are separated in the indicated places and replaced with new colors. An additional effect is added by an interesting textured pattern, complemented by a wide collar knitted in garter stitch.
Materials:
* Yarn A – Dye Dye Done Pure Merino (100% Merino): 100g/ 436 yards [400 meters] held together with yarn B – Dye Dye Done SilkyPaca (70% Superfine Alpaca, 30% Silk): 50g/ 218 yards [200 meters].

Walkham - digital knitting pattern - PDF
This unostentatiously elegant, but not overloaded cardigan is worked top down seamlessly by first knitting the back panel sideways and afterwards picking up stitches along both edges to create the back and then both fronts.
Stitches for the set-in sleeves are picked around the armhole after the body has been finished. Sleeves are then shaped with short rows and end in elegant cuffs wide enough to accommodate a blouse underneath. These cuffs, which repeat the lace pattern from the back panel, are worked sideways in a special technique so they are still seamless.
Stylish button bands with paired imitation stag-horn buttons on a stockinette stitch background are bordered by narrow cables that repeat at the sides of the sweater. A rolled stockinette stitch neckline tops off this versatile garment.

Sea Gems - digital knitting pattern - PDF
I already knew Miss Babs’ wonderful yarns from having designed Alpine Water Shawl for her in the past, but when I saw a beautiful gradient shawl online, I asked Miss Babs whether she ever custom-dyed gradient sets, and she replied she would be happy to develop a color set specially for me.
After we had talked about possible colors, I forwarded color samples found on Pinterest in my favorite purplish hues, which Miss Babs used for inspiration to develop a gem of a unique purple gradient set.
The colors and slip stitch pattern were perfect to show the beauty of Miss Babs' gradient set and reminded me of all the different colors and shapes of sea glass, hence the name: “Sea Gems”.
And this is how this asymmetrical triangle shawl came to life.

Please note that you will need almost an entire skein of MC yarn to make this shawl. Check your gauge to make sure you will not run out of yarn.

Good Old Days - digital knitting pattern - PDF
When life gets really hectic, do you wish sometimes you could have lived in the “Good Old Days”?
We always have this romantic notion that everything seemed so simple back then when people would grow everything they needed, spin their own yarn and weave their own cloth to be hand stitched into one-of-a-kind garments, but actually, all was pretty labor-intensive work! When one had to gather plants and berries to dye their own handspun before weaving it into cloth, people wouldn’t allow anything to go to waste, not even the smallest fabric remnant.
Leftovers from cutting out a dress pattern would be stitched together to make something smaller but still useful, such as a neck kerchief.
This triangular shawl in four different subdued colors lets you look like “Good Old Days” – it’s knit from one corner to the widest part with stitches picked up along the edge and wedges knit on the side of the shawl, more stitches picked up along the top edge and a small Aster stitch border added at the end, resembling narrow strips of fabric stitched together.
While recreating the looks of the “Good Old Days”, you might want to still keep today’s conveniences, like circular needles and patterns you can use on your phone, though!

Eilean - A5 Printed Pattern
“Eilean” (Gaelic for an island) is a top-down seamless sweater, combining the best of yoke and raglan construction for an ultimate fit. Its slightly bell-shaped sleeves are comfortably wide, but not in the way, and the all-over texture makes this garment an entertaining knit. With a small amount of simple fair isle knitting on the yoke – just enough to be decorative, but not as much as to be intimidatingly complicated – it is a good project to get acquainted with colorwork in the round.
“Eilean” sweater is knit in our “Delicious” yarn – a gorgeous blend of baby alpaca, silk and cashmere that is pleasant to work with, and equally pleasant to wear.

Fluorite - A5 Printed Pattern
Faded knitwear is still very popular, not to mention great for using up single skeins!
This loose-fitting seamless sweater, worked top down with unconventional overlong trumpet sleeves, is your canvas to play with colors.
With the stitch pattern, born out of improvising with increases, I came up when I wanted to create something more intricate, with a unique color scheme and an interesting texture that would appeal to the wild girl in every knitter, too.
Here, you can turn the general idea and technical recommendations for blending colorways into your very own color adventure in knit. Detailed fading instructions are included on page 4 of the pattern. It is up to you to decide whether you’d like to work this garment in one color, emphasizing the texture of the pretty twisted ribbing lines, or from the minimum of three to as many colors as you like from your riotous remnant basket.

Leizu - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Leizu” was inspired by a ready-to-wear sweater seen in an online shop. While that sweater was a simple two-color brioche pullover, I wanted to design something similar, but without the heaviness of brioche fabric, something with the look of brioche, but actually much lighter. Gorgeous Julie Asselin Leizu DK seemed just the right material to achieve this!
“Leizu” is knit top-down and seamless featuring neckline and bottom back shaping with short rows. The sweater uses two colors, starting with a contrasting color. The entire body and raglan sleeves are worked with the main color in stockinette with wide ribbed panels at the sides. The contrasting color is added in again after body and sleeves have been completed to work both torso and sleeve ribbing with two colors. It is not brioche, but actually corrugated ribbing! (A few links to helpful technique videos are added for your convenience.)
Materials: * Julie Asselin Leizu DK (90% Merino, 10% Silk): 115g/ 260 yards [238 meters]. The sample is made with colorways “Birch” (MC) and “Elephant” (CC).

Crossing Over - digital knitting pattern - PDF
After having made “Naturally Yours” last year in collaboration with De Rerum Natura, I decided to revisit this lovely and versatile yarn and design another open front cardigan (…my favorite type of sweater!).
“Crossing over” is worked top down and seamless (…my favorite construction method for sweaters!), starting from the wide collar, followed by the yoke and the body.
The back in an easy to knit half brioche stitch pattern features an interesting shaping detail based on an updated version of the shaping used in my “Wien” pullover, with a larger backcrossing that moves first “up” and then “down”, where in “Wien” it meandered only in one direction.
This comfortable and laid-back cardigan will add interest to any casual outfit!

Sea Sounds - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Are you one of those knitters who always have two projects running – a mindless one to take along and a more complicated one for the precious moments of uninterrupted knitting time?
With this top down half circle shawl, you can have both in one: easy garter stitch parts are combined with more complicated lace sections in two different stitch patterns, so you always have something to work on.
The lace patterns are both fully written out and charted.
While the original uses three maritime-themed colors in muted shades, you may want to experiment with combining and arranging more and brighter colors into your very personal rendering of the Sea Sounds concert.
The result will be a generously sized shawl to wrap yourself in comfort, at the sea or inland.
Materials:
* Filcolana Arwetta Classic (80% Merino, 20% Nylon): 50g/ 230 yards [210 meters].
You will need 3 colors: approx. 460 yards (420 meters) in Color 1 (C1), approx. 180 yards (160 meters) in Color 2 (C2) and approx. 430 yards (390 meters) in Color 3 (C3) of any fingering weight yarn that knits up to gauge.
The sample is made with colors: 990 (C1), 143 (C2), and 954 (C3).
* US 4 [3.5 mm] 40" [100 cm] circular needle
* Tapestry needle

Gauge is not essential; however, with a different gauge, actual finished measurements and total yardage will change.

Vermont - digital knitting pattern - PDF
A while ago I had been contacted by Kim Goodling, the owner of The Gotland Wool Company, who raises Gotland sheep in the U.S. and sells her yarns online and at festivals. Kim, who liked my garments combining lacework and Stockinette, wanted a pattern for a short pullover, cardigan, or vest that would show off the qualities of her wonderful yarn with emphasis on maximum yarn usage, since with this type of high-end yarn, overall project cost is often a concern.
Having never worked with Gotland yarn before, I was very curious to learn how it would knit up and what would look best to showcase its advantages. I found it to be a truly beautiful yarn that didn’t want to be spoiled by overloading it with features or drowning out its structure!
We agreed that from the colors Kim picked, I would design a cardigan in two lengths to give knitters an option of deciding on the overall yarn amount used: regular and cropped; as well as with a short and long sleeve version.
Vermont is a classic top-down raglan sweater knit seamlessly with textured lace back. The pattern contains four styling options: cropped, regular, short sleeve, and long sleeve.
“Vermont” was designed in collaboration with The Gotland Wool Company.

Aliyah - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Having been asked by Lucinda Iglesias, the owner of Mont-Tricot, to design something for an Artyarns Merino Cloud Gradients Kit, I thought a pullover would be a fitting item (no pun intended) for the wonderful gradient colorway picked by Lucinda.

Deep Feelings - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Open front cardigans are my favorite sweater type because you can put them on in a jiffy, and you look so much more approachable than when all buttoned up!
This one (worked top-down in raglan construction – of course seamless, as always) has an interesting textured pattern on the sleeves and the back part of the wide hem. The hem as well as the cuffs are set off by an elegant chained row (easy to make with a detailed picture tutorial), and last, but not least, there are pockets hidden in the hem – just what you need to feel relaxed, but still well dressed!

Peasant Surprise - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Peasant Surprise” is worked seamlessly in one piece in the round from the top down. This sweater, featuring a yoke in combination of a Japanese lace pattern with a few texture patterns, surprises by its unusual shape, reminding of a peasant blouse, hence the name!
The pattern includes several versions of the sweater: with cropped or longer body; regular, short, 3/4 length, and balloon sleeves; regular neckband, and i-cord neckline finishing. If the bulk of the pictured balloon sleeves (inspired by a sweater knit by one of my friends and testers, Beata) is too much for you, you can omit them and work a tamer version. As for me, I love them! They are roomy enough for complete freedom of movement, yet short enough not to be in the way when doing chores, or washing your hands.

Waist shaping on the back is already accounted for in the cable panel, which is fully charted and written out at the same time. Figure in convenient pockets, hidden in the wide hem, and an interesting textured stitch pattern, featuring reverse stockinette and half cardigan stitch as well as intricate cables cleverly incorporated into the overall construction, and you already know that this garment is practically “Naturally Yours” even before you start knitting it!

From Way Back - digital knitting pattern - PDF
The idea for this garment had been in my head for quite some time until it had matured to perfection. Since its classic shape and sophisticated design details, such as bottom ribbing and button band in sync with the back pattern rhythm and button spacing, also look timeless enough to fit in with any period style, I thought “From Way Back” was just the right name for it!
The cardigan is worked top-down – of course, as usual, seamless – and, despite its intricate looks, not at all complicated to knit. The lace pattern repeat is fully written out and charted at the same time, and raglan increases are charted for the full range of sizes as well.
Whether planned with zero ease, or with just enough of negative ease to fit snugly, this cardigan goes well with everything from jeans to various dress styles. Knit it from luxury fiber topped with artisan fasteners to complement your favorite silk dress, or from repurposed yarn with mismatched buttons, sewn on in different thread colors, to upgrade a pair of cutoff denims.

Bust darts are optional for those who prefer the comfortable fit of additional ease in the chest area.
Worked in a delicate, extra light and airy yarn like the one used for the sample cardigan, this garment will make a pleasant addition to your summer outfits, or use a slightly more substantial material to create a warmer jacket. Whatever your fiber choices will be – solids, light heathers and demi-solids will work best to show off the cables, and matching the hidden contrasting color of cuffs and hem to existing wardrobe pieces will show your great sense of style!

Petrichor - digital knitting pattern - PDF
This cardigan evolved after I had published my “Get the Picture” hat featuring the same stitch, resulting in a lot of inquiries for sweaters from people who were fond of the stitch pattern (as far as I remember, I think I must have found this stitch pattern on one of those free-stitch-pattern-websites, but I am not 100% sure any more). Subsequently, I decided to make one for myself to see how this would work out.
I wanted it to be a simple, classic open cardigan with raglan sleeves and pockets hidden within the hem - something comfortable and wearable made from beautiful yarn, the kind of sweater you can slip into when you go for a walk in the park with your kids - but at the same time, unique enough so you won’t be lost in the crowd if the kids come looking for you.
And that was how the adult sized “Petrichor” came to life.
This cardigan is knit top down, absolutely seamlessly (even the pockets are joined to the hem as you work them up), with extra waist shaping on the back.
To make it easier to knit, all raglan increases are charted for all sizes.

Wrap Me Tender - digital knitting pattern - PDF
One doesn’t always feel like wearing frilly dresses and high heels, or does anybody?
For less fancy occasions like going to a picnic or having a quick coffee with our best friend, we sometimes just want to throw on a favorite pair of jeans and a plain vanilla t-shirt without appearing overdressed for the occasion - but even then, a special accessory like this shawl will make us stand out.
Knitted from the top down in a semi-circle shape, this cozy shawl features short row sections with intermittent dropped-stitch rows for visual interest. Most of the test samples are worked in two solid contrasting colors, but long color repeats or even all different colors would look equally well for the short row sections.
For additional fun, using a lighter color for the dropped-stitch rows will make the shawl look as if it were serged together on a giant interlock machine.

Distinction - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Although my first idea had been a shawl, I later came to the conclusion that something more streamlined would showcase the scrumptious yarn in a much better way without distracting from its hand-dyed beauty: A stole, to wear over a Little Black Dress to the theater or for an evening at a nice restaurant - nothing too ornamented, but rather understated and elegant.
Inspired by an intricate stitch pattern I had spotted in a Polish knitting magazine, I then set out to develop the cabled design. When I showed it to Kam from Everyday Peacocks, to whom I had talked a while ago how nice it would be to have a pin designed especially for one of my accessories, she found it a neat idea and then came up with a unique pin to replicate the knitted leave motif from my stole. Isn’t her pin just wonderful?

Autonomous Hat - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Using the same stitch pattern as the Symbiotic cowl, the Autonomous makes the perfect complement to your outer wear wardrobe.

This hat can be knit all in one color or for more punch, add in a second color for the pompom.
Have you sometimes stumbled on pretty leftovers in your stash where the colors make a good match, but they can’t be used together because their yarns weights are just too different?
Now, now can pair them in one hat by making the pompom from a different yarn, because for this, the yarn weight doesn’t matter.
Autonomous has one other great advantage! It is reversible :) So attach your huge pompom to the safety pin and you can wear it on either side of your hat.

Symbiotic Cowl - digital knitting pattern - PDF
There are some things in life that just belong together - their very existence depends on the other. And most surprisingly, these symbionts have no idea that they’re helping each other to survive with this most beautiful relationship. While our existence isn’t dependent on yarn, as knitters, we can appreciate the relationship that is created when yarn and design collide in a perfect way.
I hope you agree that not only does the design and yarn of this cowl emulate that type of relationship, but the marriage of two colorways intertwined in one another produce perfect harmony that can be described in one word - Symbiotic.
This cozy cowl is made using two colors of your favorite worsted weight yarn. Wear it long for fashion, wrapped around twice for warmth! Or wear it short as a cozy neck warmer! Grab your needles and yarn; it won’t take long to create it!
The chart in this pattern is also written out.

Angarika Stole - digital knitting pattern - PDF
I adore the look of lace shawls that other knitters create, but not very keen of knitting them myself simply because of the endless repetition of hundreds of rows.
However, I desperately needed one for my friends’ Polish-Indian wedding. And I needed it fast :)
In order to escape the repeated rows I have decided to knit a stole from top to bottom with a subtle lace edging. Therefore, Angarika stole came to life…
The charted design of this stole is very easy to follow, and can be knit up with nearly any lace weight yarn and appropriate needle size.
The pattern contains a row by row written instruction of the Lace chart pattern.
It was made by Hala and I am highly thankful to her!!!

Shelliana - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Shelliana” is an asymmetrical triangular shawl worked on the bias in a shell-like pattern inspired by entrelac and brioche, but created entirely with twisted stitches.
Started by casting on 5 stitches at the tip of the triangle, it gains width through increases and additional pattern repeats, with occasional short rows cleverly hidden in the textured pattern, which introduce a slight curvature in the top edge of the triangle for a convenient shape that stays safely put on the shoulders.
With its stitch pattern flowing along in soft waves, it complements a variety of outfit styles from casual to festive, and can be paired with jeans as well as skirts and dresses.
Pattern available in the following languages: Polish, English, German.
Boxigan - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Boxigan (“boxy cardigan, as you might have guessed”) is worked seamlessly from the top down.
The laid-back design has been kept as streamlined as possible, with stockinette stitch only occasionally broken up by subtle eyelet columns, as well as knit braids at the cuffs and edges – just enough to be recognized as hand knit by insiders!
Work starts at the back with a long-tail cast-on, after which the Back stitches are worked down to the armhole and placed on hold. Stitches for the Front are picked up one row in from the cast-on edge for an imitated shoulder “seam” look.
Especially important for boxy-look garments, Front and Back neckline as well as sleeve caps are shaped with German Short Rows for a proper fit.
Thanks to detailed explanations about special techniques used (with links to explanatory videos) this uncomplicated garment can be worked even by courageous beginners. Featuring 12 sizes in a size range from XS1 to 4XL, this garment is truly for inclusive. The pattern is fully written out and contains no charts.

Mohair Me - digital knitting pattern - PDF
This yarn by Filcolana and its interesting color appealed instantly to me, even though the color, a deep reddish Russet, is way off from the usual suspects in my range of favorite tones.
This roomy sweater in an oversize look with lots of positive ease is worked seamlessly from the top down, neckline and shoulders are shaped with German short rows. The pattern contains two options for the neckline – either a wide rounded neckline with ribbed neckband, or – with additional yardage requirements – a cozy turtleneck.
The neckline shaping section is charted only, while the Main Pattern comes both as chart (individually for each size) as well as in form of written-out row-by-row instructions.

Bly - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Bly shawl’s color scheme and stitch pattern are reminiscent of the dark, gothic, and mysterious atmosphere of the Netflix series “The Haunting of the Bly Manor”, which I watched while thinking up this design – thus the name! The stitch pattern (which is from an old book) had been earlier mentioned on Instagram, and I thought it would be nice to use in a shawl.
The shawl is constructed similarly to “Shelliana”, with increases along the side, and a few short rows to ensure it stays put while exploring the unknown of vast and creepy old manors, or just walking within the predictably secure confines of your own house.

All Aligned - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“All Aligned” is a seamless top-down cardigan with raglan shaping and lots of texture.
Open-front cardigans are my favorite because they are so versatile! For this one, I used a yarn by Julia Asselin which had beckoned from my stash for a while. I especially like its color. In this cardigan, I combined it with an extra lace strand in a similar colorway, which gives it just the right amount of heaviness.
Increases and decreases are cleverly hidden in the simple texture pattern with clear brioche lines. Due to the brioche, this stitch pattern is rather yarn-consuming – make sure you have enough for the whole garment!
All shaping is charted, and the main stitch is also written out row by row.

Trussed and Twisted - digital knitting pattern - PDF
"Trussed and Twisted” is a top for all those who love intriguing details.
A deep neckline finished with I-cord, an unusual, symmetrical cable and openwork stitch pattern, accentuated false “seams” and interesting constructions create a garment that will satisfy every knitting adventure explorer.
The design of the sweater, with a classic shoulder line positioned further back, has been modernized here, and the sweater is knitted in one piece, completely seamless. After knitting a few rows on the back piece, stitches are picked up for the front and sleeves, after which proper shaping starts, and the sweater is worked down to the ribbing.
The modern, slightly cropped length of the sweater and ¾ length sleeves of the original are easy to change and adjust to your own preferences. The pattern is written in 11 sizes from XXS to 4XL, with separate charts for the Fronts. To save paper, print only the pages you need for your size.

Julka Cardi - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Julka Cardigan” is a seamless overlapping-front cardigan with a feminine touch, interesting slanted shoulder construction, elbow-length sleeves and a delicate lace pattern on the Fronts.
The garment is worked from the top down, starting at the back with a long-tail cast-on. First, the Back is shaped with short rows to create a slanted shoulder line, then the stitches of the Back are worked down to the armhole, and placed on hold. Now, stitches for the Fronts are picked up one row in from the cast-on edge for an imitated shoulder “seam” look, and worked to the armhole, where the parts are joined and worked together down to the hem, which is finished with an i-cord edge. When the body is completed, sleeve stitches are picked up around the armholes, the sleeves are worked in the round to an elbow length, and likewise finished with applied i-cord edging.
Back and sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch, the fronts in a lace pattern. Instructions for the lace pattern are charted and also completely written out.
“Julka” is the perfect cardigan for those hot summer days, to be paired with sleeveless dresses or T-shirt and shorts for a casually-elegant, but always feminine look. Make one in a cotton or linen blend to take out to the beach and boardwalk café, and another in your favorite glossy yarn to complement your evening dress. Smoother yarns with a clear stitch definition and careful blocking will bring out the best in the lace pattern.

Boxed and Framed - wzór dziewiarski - cyfrowy plik PDF
“Boxed and Framed” is the cleaner-line version of “Boxed and Cabled” for those who prefer a straightforward look. This pattern lets the yarn stand out without deflecting from the stitch definition with too much texture or decorative elements. You still won’t be bored when knitting it because the interesting construction makes up very well for the lack of stitch patterns!
Solenn (De Rerum Natura) liked the construction of my “Boxed and Cabled” cardigan so much, she sketched her own version for a simpler, more streamlined version of it, and asked me to write a pattern from her hand-drawn sketch, which is exactly what I did! I followed her suggestions to the last dot, and this is what came out of this collaboration:
A pattern sketched by Solenn (De Rerum Natura), who know best how to highlight their yarns.
Implemented by myself, who knows how to turn a construction idea into a garment that will work.
Tested by my proven pool of test knitters, who know best what fits their actual body shape, in a wide size range.
“Boxed and Framed” is worked in back-and-forth rows, starting from a provisional cast-on in the Back, beginning with a horizontal chain, after which the triangular shape of the back is created using German short rows, and the garment continued top down to the armholes. Later, stitches for both fronts are picked up, and after another horizontal chain, the fronts are worked down to the underarm where both fronts and the back are joined and continued in one piece to the hem.
This versatile cardigan will accompany you from morning coffee through a day at the office to an evening at the opera. Thanks to its minimalist shape, it can complement a variety of different wardrobe items, from cropped jeans or wide-leg linen pants over mini skirts or shorts to elegant A-line or sheath column dresses.

Cantata - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Cantata” Pullover, created in collaboration with Walcot yarns, is knit top-down in the round entirely seamless. The pictured sample was knit in Walcot Yarns Opus (70% Merino, 30% Alpaca): 100g/ 384 yards {350 meters}, a merino-alpaca blend that is pleasing to work with and brings out the best in the stitch pattern.
Specially designed with modified circular yoke construction to have a lowered yoke and wider neckline, this sweater has a slightly cropped overall length and long sleeves with moderate balloon shaping in the lower part. It features a textured overall stitch pattern of vertical lines, broken by short horizontal welts in rhythmic intervals, which had been inspired by the photo of a ready-to wear garment spotted on a Pinterest board.
The pullover is completely worked inside out to avoid purling too many stitches. A helpful video tutorial explains the special technique used to create the decorative welts sitting like notes on staff lines in music.
The pattern provides complete row-by-row instructions for 9 sizes, a separate stitch pattern chart for those who prefer to work visually, as well as the customary schematics with marker placement.
Laid-back without looking sloppy, this is a sweater for relaxed moments in an otherwise structured life – wear it around campus, in front of the fireplace at a cozy mountain cabin, or just for a coffee shop run into town on a Saturday morning.

Laceback Motyle - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Laceback Motyle” is a loose–fitting sweater with a wide neckline and ¾-length sleeves, ideal for transitioning into fall. As with my previous design, “Laceback Top”, this one also features elegant lace panels that decorate the back and extend onto both sleeves. However, this time, I used a butterfly-shaped lace pattern – thus the name “Laceback Motyle” (Motyle – Polish for butterflies).
This sweater is worked from the top down in a modified raglan construction and features different shaping for the front and back.
Eyelets are added to the sleeves and at the sides of this sweater for fun and decoration, and the contrasting hem gives it a feminine touch, making this top a versatile garment for many occasions.

Barri Gotic- - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Last year, I left a piece of my heart in Barcelona… somewhere in the Gothic Quarter’s maze of narrow streets! While strolling through medieval alleyways, getting lost (sometimes intentionally, sometimes not), and discovering real gems off the beaten tracks, I absorbed the atmosphere of this extraordinary town.
Later at home, an equally atmospheric yarn was waiting for me: hand-dyed in Spain by the talented Feliz Y Punto – my countrywoman. And thus the Barri Gotic shawl was born – inspired by Gothic architecture and gorgeous yarn.
Barri Gotic is a triangular shawl, worked sideways from the tip to the widest part, and shaped with increases hidden in the side braids.
The intriguing stitch pattern used here features unusual openwork surrounded by symmetrical cables which approach each other and recede again. The shawl is fully reversible and can be worked in any size until the yarn is used up.

Kodikas - digital knitting pattern - PDF
Kodikas is a seamless top-down pullover with a textured pattern on the front. The sweater has an unusual neck opening in the versatile but underappreciated henley style.

Waiting for normality - digital knitting pattern - PDF
“Waiting for…” is a V-neck jumper in a relaxed fit. The shoulder seams, accentuated with a decorative stitch pattern, are shifted towards the back using a modified version of English Tailored (also known as “fully fashioned”) shoulder shaping.

Miamas - digital knitting pattern - PDF
As I was reading “My Grandmother Asked Me to Tell You She’s Sorry” by Fredrik Backman, I was inspired to create a pullover that embodied the spirit of Miamas, the fictional land of fairy tales where everyone is accepted for who they are. And so, Miamas the sweater was born.
Soft and feminine, this sweater features a diamond-shaped, three-dimensional circle yoke and a modest stockinette body. It’s worked from the top down, completely seamlessly, making it a joy to knit. I added buttoned cuff slits and an I-cord-finished neckline for a touch of elegance.
