Ella Rae Patterns

Ella Rae patterns are known for straightforward construction and timeless style, making them a reliable choice whether you're knitting for yourself, your kids, or your home. With dozens of designs available as PDFs, it helps to know what to look for before you pick one.

Choosing a Pattern

Start with the garment type you want to make. Pullovers like Ella Rae 1120-03 Damaris Pullover or Ella Rae 1121-02 Solange Pullover suit knitters who want a classic silhouette, while a piece like Ella Rae 1120-06 Tabitha Poncho offers a quicker, less fitted project. If you're knitting for family, the Ella Rae 1135-02 Anderson Family Sweaters pattern lets you make coordinating sweaters in multiple sizes.

Matching Yarn to Your Pattern

Each Ella Rae pattern is designed with a specific yarn weight and drape in mind, so check the pattern notes before substituting. Shopping directly from Ella Rae Yarn makes it easy to get gauge right the first time. For more design options beyond this collection, explore our full range of knitting patterns.

Tips for Success

Always knit a gauge swatch before starting, especially for fitted garments like pullovers and cardigans. Keep track of any modifications you make, since many Ella Rae designs include multiple sizes that are easy to adjust for length or fit.
