Welcome to the My First Knits collection, designed to help you build your knitting skills step by step. From your very first stitches to your first sweater, we’ve got you covered.
We kick it off with Freshman, a scarf that proves beginner knitting can make a major impact. Designed by Afifa Sayeed using squishy super-bulky Be Wool and the easiest stitch in the book, this piece is all about instant gratification.
Next up is Sophomore, designed by Alexandra Frankel. This cozy beanie is a cold-weather staple, with its classic lines and playful pompom. Deluxe Bulky Superwash makes for quick stitching with stunning results.
Junior, designed by Afifa Sayeed, takes a simple shape and a splash of color, and gives you endless style. This shawl shows off the soft sheen and playful texture of Bamboo Bloom Handpaints, making it an instant statement piece.
The Senior legwarmers, designed by Alexandra Frankel, are all about warmth and style. Fashion meets fun in an all-over mock cable pattern with super-cute drawstring ties. They’re soft and durable too, thanks to our easy-care Uptown Worsted yarn.
Ready to tackle your first sweater? Look no further than the Graduate pullover, designed by Alexandra Frankel and Afifa Sayeed. Pairing basic raglan shaping with bold color, tweedy texture, and sporty stripes, Graduate balances simplicity and character in one perfect package with a winning combination of Deluxe Worsted Tweed Superwash and Deluxe Worsted Superwash. The color possibilities are endless.
