Why choose Lout Knitting Patterns and Kits?

About our Designer Series of Knitting and Crocheting Patterns!

The Designer Series is Lout Sales Prestige Series of Knit and Crochet Patterns, ideally suited to complement our unique yarn collections, such as Euroflax Linen and GEMS Merino.

Why Choose our Patterns?

Our Designer Series Knitting Patterns are special! They integrate classic style with innovative stitches and up-to-date detailing to produce high-quality, well-written knit & crochet patterns that you will enjoy creating and wearing.

Fit
Our knitting patterns are body conscious - designed to give you supple movement with slimming lines instead of a boxy, one-size-fits-all style...for example, the integration of bust darts in “Dawn” “Kassandra” and “April”, give you a better bust fit, while a subtle underarm insert in “Lily” gives you more freedom of movement.

Detail
It’s the little differences that make our sweaters so unique - like the special necklines in “Kassandra” and “Joshua”, the picot edging in “Lily”, the stylish cap sleeves and shawl-like cardigan in the “April” sweater set or the fun rolled hems on “Joshua,” “Shannon,” and "Dakota".

Stitches
The combination of stitches in our knitting instructions are well-illustrated and easy to do, and bring out the best qualities in our yarns. Combos like the sculptured stitches in “Brayden”, the smashing cables in “Joshua”  and "Candace", the delicate sleeves/collar in “Kassandra” and the color/stitch combos in "Driftwood" will intrigue you.

About Shawls...

Shawls, the stuff dreams are made of! Dainty, elegant, stunning, shawls add a dash of pizzazz to any wardrobe. But shawls are practical too, they add warmth and interest to any outfit and are a great conversation piece too.

Shawls have been around for hundreds of years and the quality of the shawl, the size and the quantity one possessed often marked the social status of the wearer. Empress Josephine of France is said to own several hundred of these luxurious lacy items. 

You probably love shawls, but are not sure what to do with them. After all it may have been a while since you last saw someone wearing a shawl at the grocery store.

True, but then, a grocery store is not exactly shawl territory. Then what is? 

Think versatile. True, any special occasion, a dinner on the town, a wedding or an evening out can be dressed up with a shawl. But a shawl can do much more! 

Use it as a fun cover up on the beach, shield yourself from overzealous air conditioning vents in the office or use a shawl as a christening blanket in a baptismal. Knitting a heavier shawl? Use it to jazz up your couch or hide those ugly stains. Keep one in your car for those long road trips. A shawl can go anywhere. So what about the grocery store? Sure take it. Sling it over your shoulder and think pizzazz!
