24 Practical, Beautiful Designs to Wear Every Day!
Knitters love stitching pieces that become mainstays: garments and accessories to wear year after year. They are steadfast companions in your daily adventures: walking the dog, working outdoors, or simply tucking in for a cozy night at home.
Rugged Knits is a collection of 24 functional, lovely, and interesting knitting patterns for men and women. Side-by-side with hearty wool sweaters and sock patterns are more unexpectedly delicate-looking pieces, such as a warm, resilient shawl with lace trim and a cozy cowl with gentle drape. Those who love cables will rejoice in the gorgeously-shaped turtleneck and bright, eye-catching mitts. Fans of colorwork will enjoy both stranded knitting and intarsia pieces, while those who want to keep it simple will delight in textured, knit-and-purl designs.
A two-colorcheck, the most basic of colorwork patterns, creates a fabric that is spongy and supple. Even though the yarn here incorporates lush fibers with high drape, such as silk, the resultant fabric keeps its shape thanks to the interlocking of the strands of each color. That means you can make an incredibly soft, glowing sweater seamlessly. This is the ultimate sweatshirt—elegant and sophisticated, but still relaxed and luxuriously soft. It’s worked from the bottom up with gentle waist shaping; the seamless yoke is a combination raglan/saddle- shoulder construction for a flattering fit. The V-neck is shaped with steek stitches that are reinforced and cut, while the hemmed neckband is picked up and worked after the rest of the sweater is finished.
This unisex cardigan was inspired by the Lopapeysa tradition of decoratively yoked Icelandic sweaters. ístex’s Lettlopi yarn, a worsted, creates a fabric that is incredibly warm and sturdy enough for farm chores, camping, and trekking, and will remain beautiful for generations. It’s worked in the round and then a steek is cut open to separate the fronts. Deep pockets make it that much more functional.
This is the sweater for all your outdoor activities this fall and for many years to come. The drop-shoulder construction leaves plenty of room to move, whether you’re cycling, hiking, or just getting things done in the backyard. The striking colorwork adds a pop to any outfit, and the woolen-spun yarn creates a lightweight, draping, warm fabric. Gentle waist shaping, slender sleeves, and a deep scoop neck give this oversized pullover feminine flare. It’s worked in the round from the bottom up, the shaped shoulders are joined using three-needle bind-off, and sleeves are sewn in using mattress stitch. The colorwork employs three colors at once over a few of the rounds, so it’s best for knitters with some colorwork experience.
This sweater is the knitter’s version of the perfect thermal base layer. Make it out of a super-soft fingering-weight yarn like Anzula Cloud to wear it next to the skin under your heavier vest, sweater, or coat. The lightweight yarn worked in a subtle texture creates a versatile fabric that warms without overheating so it can be worn from fall to spring. It’s worked bottom-up seamlessly with raglan yoke shaping.
This cozy cabled pullover is truly lush. Elaborate cables pop as an allover pattern, while a generous cowl neck creates practical elegance. Use a yarn like Berroco Ultra Alpaca for warmth, stitch definition, and a very subtle halo. The sweater is worked in pieces, resulting in seams that offer stability and allow for more portable knitting. Pair your masterpiece with jeans for winter farm chores or a tulle skirt for a holiday party.
When you need a little extra warmth, go for this colorwork toque. The fingering-weight yarn creates a fabric that’s not too heavy to fit under your climbing or bike helmet, but you’ll love the extra squishy layer of color over your ears. The tweedy, rustic style looks great on men and women, and the possible color combinations are endless. Since the color pattern is fairly simple, this is a great introduction for those new to stranded color work.
Rich and bright, these textured knee socks can take you on any adventure. An eye-catching and unusual cable travels up the outside of the shaped leg, while the dense, waffled fabric is durable and looks great with boots. The socks are worked from the toe up, so you can adjust the calf length to your liking without running out of yarn. They also feature a shaped gusset, heel flap, and ribbed cuff for a snug, comfortable fit.
This textured vest works up quickly in super- bulky yarn. The neckband and armhole edgings are worked using short-row shaping for a slimming look. Use a lofty, light wool such as Imperial Yarn Bulky 2 Strand to create a thick and cozy vest.
Chic, sexy, and stylish, this is a handknit luxury version of the classic insulated vest. The simple but fetching Cartridge Belt Rib stitch draws in to create a shapely garment that can be worn alone or over your favorite wool base layer. Add a winter coat for comfort in the chilliest weather or wear it with a skirt for holiday get-togethers. It’s worked in the round from the bottom up with waist shaping and a raglan yoke. The cowl neck is picked up and shaped with graduating needle sizes.
This is the knitted version of your favorite hoodie—made in pieces, it’s got a roomy fit and drop-shoulder construction to keep it casual and comfortable, with big functional slant pockets and neat garter edgings. Waist shaping makes for a flattering fit. The seams add structure and long-term durability to the hoodie, so you can wear it for years. Contrasting stripes along the front and hood edgings add just enough interest while keeping this piece versatile and wearable.
This men’s version of the Silhouette Base Layer includes all the great features of the women’s sweater—seamless construction, light, warm fabric, and a comfortably snug fit for a three- season pullover. But it’s shaped specifically to fit a man’s proportions. It includes longer sleeves, deeper armholes, and reverse A-line shaping.
Outdoor pursuits demand free fingers, so I love fingerless mitts for keeping me cozy and capable. These mitts combine a durable waffle-stitch pattern with a lush merino wool/cashmere/nylon-blend yarn for the ideal combination of practical luxury. Delicate cables are placed on the outside of each hand; a gusseted thumb makes for a comfortable, attractive fit.
This blanket-like wrap is worked from the bottom up, starting with a very simple four-row lace pattern. Decreases are then worked at the edges and center to make a shallow but generous triangle. Blocking spreads out the lace edge for a large wingspan that will keep you cozy all winter. Work it up in a lofty, bulky wool such as Imperial Yarn Native Twist for a plush but lightweight shawl.
The ultimate winter cap, Passing Glacier uses a knit-in hem combined with stranded colorwork to make a thick woolly fabric. A luscious and luxurious cashmere/alpaca/silk blend makes up the inside of the hem, while rustic Lettlopi offers durability as well as wind and water resistance. Wear this on your snowy adventures for years to come. This cap works equally well for men and women.
This chic loop is the scarf you’ll grab from October all the way through March. The luxurious, lightweight fabric is created with a subtle but beautiful (and clever!) stitch pattern. It’s just long enough to wrap around twice if the temperature dips, and its draping fabric makes it just the thing whether you’re headed for the office, a woodland hike, or
an evening party. It’s worked entirely in the round for minimal finishing.
Knits and purls make a subtle, graphic texture, while shaping creates a cowl that slips over your head and flares at the bottom to fit perfectly under your coat or hoodie. Make it in a semisolid gray for a wardrobe staple or pick your favorite bright hand-dyed DK weight to add a pop of color to your outfit. It’s worked from the top down and can easily be modified to be longer.
Tie this richly textured kerchief on for an evening around the campfire. The nubbly stitch pattern and simple construction make for a fun, engaging knit that will add warmth and color to any outfit. It’s worked from the point upward, so you can make it as small or as large as you like.
Gentle cables make a luscious fabric with a light, fluffy yarn such as Berroco Kodiak. This piece can be worn elegantly draped around the neck cowl-style or pulled over the shoulders for a sweet capelet look.
I’m always looking for slim, lightweight hats that look good and work under my bike helmet. This tweedy, textured toque features an understated waffle-stitch pattern that’s equally fetching on men and women. It’s worked bottom-up with square crown shaping.
