Garment Designs in This Collection

Arade

Designer: Amy Christoffers | Skill Level: Intermediate

Arade is a knitted garment featuring sophisticated lace patterning. The design incorporates multiple stitch techniques across its construction, creating visual interest through strategic placement of decreases and yarn overs. The pattern uses stitch markers to help organize complex stitch repeats, with sections worked in groups of 7, 8, 9, or 10 repeats depending on size.

Stitches and Techniques Used:

• Yarn overs (yo) for creating lace elements and decorative openwork
• Slip slip knit (SSK) decreases for left-leaning lace shaping
• Knit (k) and purl (p) stitches for textural contrast
• Knit two together (k2tog) for right-leaning decreases
• Stitch markers (sm) to delineate pattern sections

The pattern demonstrates intermediate-level complexity through its use of multiple decrease types, yarn overs in various sequences, and the coordination of mirrored lace panels. The garter stitch borders (knit 6 stitches) frame the lace sections, providing structure and visual definition to the finished piece.
