Timber Falls Knit Sweater by Annie Haas
What Is Being Made
Timber Falls is a downloadable knitting pattern for a colorwork sweater designed by Annie Haas. This beginner-friendly DK-weight knit project features original color work motifs and combines knit and purl stitches to create unique depth and texture throughout the garment. The pattern is available in multiple sizes and is intended as a fast knit project suitable for knitters new to colorwork techniques.
Yarn and Materials
This sweater is designed to be knit with Sugar Plum Circus DK-weight yarn, which is hand-dyed in small batches from 100% Superwash Merino Wool. Each skein contains 100 grams and yields 231 yards. The pattern calls for two colors: a main color (Moon) requiring approximately 590 to 924 yards depending on size, and a contrasting color (Drosselmeyer) requiring approximately 390 to 562 yards. Knitting is worked on US Size 6 (4.0 mm) circular needles, with a minimum length of 16 inches.
Techniques and Stitches
Timber Falls employs colorwork techniques with notably short floats, making it an accessible introduction to color knitting for beginners. The pattern incorporates a thoughtful combination of knit and purl stitches that work together to build visual interest and tactile texture. This stitch combination approach allows knitters to create dimensional effects without relying solely on color changes.
The designer encourages customization and experimentation with yarn selection. Knitters can pair a colorful speckled yarn with a more solid yarn to achieve a similar aesthetic, or explore the various color combinations available from Sugar Plum Circus yarns. This flexibility makes the pattern adaptable to different yarn preferences while maintaining the intended design integrity.
