🥁 29 Knitting Patterns for Autumn 2026

What knitting projects to cast on this autumn? There are so many nice knitting patterns out there and it's kind of difficult to choose and you know I'm gonna make your life even more difficult because I'm gonna introduce you to even more nice knitting patterns so you are warned but hopefully you will get some of these moments during this video as well where you see a pattern And you feel a loud yes in your body. Yes, this is the pattern that speaks to me. I want to knit it. I must knit it. And then it can make your decision making easier as well, hopefully. We will see. I've categorized these 33 patterns we are going through into six different categories that are very crucial for autumn knitting. First we are talking about blouses, then we have texture and minimal cable category, the third category is cardigans, next we have vests, the fifth category is jackets, and the sixth category and my favorite is the artsy category. It's about knitting the things that your soul calls for. So these are the six categories. My autumn knitting is gonna look a bit different this time because I'm in Bali at the moment and I'm gonna have my autumn and winter here in the tropical climate but still I plan to knit many wool sweaters as well. I have some wool brought with me and I plan to buy some new but also I plan to knit some more summery garments as well. So in a way I'm very jealous to do this type of pattern roundup because autumn and winter season is the best knitting season and it's even better if you can also wear these knits. I can knit these autumn winter pieces here as well but they are not very practical at the moment. First we have blouses. The first pattern in this category is heaven blouse by moragknit. It's a beautiful, beautiful sweater which has this sheer part on top. It's bra friendly as well. You need to wear bras without stripes if you don't want to do anything peeking through But it's just... Heavenly blouse like the name says. It uses sport plus lace weight yarn which makes up worsted. So it's not your super thin blouse either. You could wear it also during the winter season and it has only 26 projects on Ravelry. Moragknit is pretty Popular designer, so I'm not sure what's going on here. It's a bit older pattern, maybe the designer wasn't that popular back then. The pattern came out July 2023. But yeah, definitely worth checking out today. I saw this pattern the first time and I again have another pattern in the list I want to knit. It's kind of frustrating at times when there are so many beautiful patterns. It is what it is. The next pattern is Bombosa mohair blouse by Made by Roche. Again, I'm gonna butcher the names, I'm sorry. And it's a beautiful mohair blouse. I've seen these patterns a lot. There are many versions of it. They all look pretty similar. Most of them are with boat neck and this. Bell sleeves. But what I like about this is that it's made to measure. Some of the sheer mohair blouses are knitted up with very large needles and it makes it very sheer. Here with this pattern it's possible to kind of choose your own level of sheerness. If you use a bit tinier needle then it's more filled. With bigger needles, it's more see-through. It's very beautiful. On the sample images, we can see images where the model is wearing just a bralette. I would probably wear it with a shirt underneath, sleeveless. But yeah, beautiful. It came out June 2026, so it's a newer pattern, and there are 18 projects on Ravelry. And yeah, you need it with one strand of mohair. Or actually you could knit it with anything you want, but to achieve this sheer look this is done with one strand of mohair. Let's move forward. And a bit warning here, it seems like most of the blouses here are knit with mohair, but maybe it's the season of mohair, who knows. And the next pattern is Saeli Sweater by Seine Knits. It's a very unique and beautiful design. It also has these sheer mohair sections, also some lace and yeah it has a nice construction as well. Well, Maybe it's set in sleeve I would imagine but I'm not so sure. This pattern calls for Like fingering and mohair lace. I'm not saying the needle sizes anymore in my videos because I've seen that there are many people from United States watching these videos and the needle sizes between US and Europe vary. But we can talk about yarn weight which is the common thread The thread and the yarn weight kind of gives an idea how thick is the fabric. If you want to have more details about these patterns, then you can go to Ravelry, check out the links in the description box and you can find out more about these patterns. The next pattern in the blouse category is Theresia Sweater by Georgia Fibers. It has been pretty popular the recent months, even though the pattern itself is a bit Older, it came out October 2024. And the recommended yarn for this is Cardiff cashmere classic, which is DK or sport weight yarn. I think it's sport weight yarn, but however it says DK. Cashmere can be pretty expensive yarn to use, so you can easily substitute to anything else. But what I like about this blouse is this cute detailing in front where you have this A little cute hole and a pearl button and a nice way to mix up the necklines of knitted sweaters. I have crewnecks for example the most in my hand knitted wardrobe and now I'm starting to think like huh maybe I would like to knit sweaters or blouses with different necklines and this Would give you an option if you have the same issue in your wardrobe. And this sweater uses European shoulder construction which is very well fitting construction style in my opinion and I think that it fits a lot of body types. And it's knitted top down in the round like all the previous ones. The next pattern is Eleanor blouse by JoJo knitwear. It's again beautiful mohair blouse. The recommended yarn is Isager yarn silk mohair and Isager yarn, Isager soft fine. This Isager soft fine is mohair and alpaca blend. So both threads are very fluffy and you knit it on very wide gauge, it's 13 stitches. So it's gonna be pretty fascinating. This blouse calls for short sleeves but you could easily modify it and knit them full length if you prefer. Yeah, very beautiful pattern and it's a newer pattern. It came out August 2026 and it has 23 projects on Ravelry. The last blouse we have is the October Day blouse by Marsha Cibliakova I was so close to knitting this blouse, but... Then some other plans came into picture but it's so beautiful. I like this lace but it's not small and dainty but it's like bigger and bolder a little bit. Very stylish. It also has a round yoke construction and it's knitted with two strands of mohair and the gauge is 17 stitches. So pretty wide gauge which means that it would be relatively quick knit and it has only eight projects on Ravelry as of now. The next category is texture and minimal cables and the first pattern we have in this category is Koya Ma by Johan Ang. This is a beautiful saddle shoulder sweater which is knitted top down seamlessly. It's knitted with worsted weight yarn, DK plus lace and the gauge is 15 stitches. I really like this stylish cable along the sleeve, interesting yet minimal, it would be very versatile sweater in anyone's wardrobe and I like it that it doesn't use a very typical So, type of cable, but. Very unique version of a cable. It's a bit older pattern, it came out September 2021 and it has 293 projects on Ravelry. The next pattern is kind of similar to the previous one. It's the Biscuit Sweater by Subinix and this one also has a cable along the sleeve. But there are many differences as well. Well first the cable motif is different. And it also has some bubbles and this sweater is knitted without mohair. This is actually a raglan sweater, not a mohair. A saddle shoulder like the previous one and it's knitted on tighter gauge with sport weight yarn. It's very feminine, modern, elegant sweater. It's a bit newer pattern, it came out April 2025 and it has only 28 projects on Ravelry. And next sweater is a textured sweater and it's the It's a new pattern, it came out this month, October 2026. And it's a modern take on a textured sweater. It's knitted with fingering plus lace yarn and the gauge is 22 stitches. You can see that the designer have put a lot of effort into every single detail. It looks very balanced, the shape is elegantly boxy, the seam lines are featuring cables, There are different texture sections. And it's just very beautiful and professional-looking. I would definitely love to have it in my wardrobe. As it's a new pattern, it doesn't have any projects on Ravelry yet. But I'm sure it's gonna change very soon. Definitely worth checking out. The next pattern is a very popular pattern. And the first time I saw it, my jaw just dropped. I was amazed. It was... I found it so, so beautiful. And I was so close. buying yarn for this sweater but then I kind of realized that I will go to Bali soon and it maybe wouldn't be so practical. I don't have so much space in my luggage so I had to postpone it a bit but I'm pretty sure it will be on my needles sometime soon and it's the Edith Sweater by Lenny. Lenit has so many popular patterns recently, I like what she's putting out and it's a beautiful cabled textured sweater. The main motif of this sweater is the front panel here. It features very unique cabling. I haven't seen this type of motif before, I really enjoy it. I like to see new ways of knitting garments. Different motifs, patterns and this sweater definitely provides it. It's an Aran weight sweater. It's knitted with three threads of yarn or their alternative yarn suggestion for two threads as well. Three sounds a bit too much. And it is a drop shoulder sweater. As I said, it's a newer pattern, it came out September 2026 and it already has 167 projects on Ravelry. The next pattern is two-way pullover my size by Min Young Ang and it's a very minimal looking sweater, yet very stylish. It has this cable along the sleeve. And I really appreciate that the cable is placed a bit more in front, not exactly in the middle of the sleeve. That's why you can see the cable a little bit more and also gives the sweater a more modern look. This sweater is knitted with fingering plus fingering yarn which makes it worsted. The gauge is 19 stitches. And it's a shadow shoulder construction fitted in the round top down. This pattern came out August 2025 and it has 21 projects on Ravelry. The next sweater is a bit similar, it's the Ease in Tea by Yamatara and it features this beautiful braid along the raglan line. This sweater is knitted with super bulky yarn but it actually doesn't have such wide gauge, it's only 16 stitches and knitted on 5.5 millimeter needles US 9. I think it's because the yarn that is recommended is pretty fluffy and then you just knit it tightly. It's knitted top down seamlessly, it has raglan construction and The sample images are showing this design with short sleeves which would be perfect for autumn season but it would be also very easy to modify and have it with long sleeves. Many options there. It's a newer pattern, it came out September 2026 and it has 30 projects on Ravelry. The last pattern in this category is a popular one and it's the Fairy Phuket by Johan Ang. It's a bit older pattern, it came out December 2021 but it's still very beautiful. It has a textured section on top and then also along the sleeve. It's very feminine, elegant, beautiful sweater and again what I like about this pattern is that it features very unique motifs that you don't see every day. For example, the motif along the sleeve. It's very interesting and different that not many sweaters are having. This sweater is knitted top down seamlessly. It calls for fingering I am using black lace yarn which makes it DK and the gauge is 18.5 stitches. This pattern has 566 projects on Ravelry. Now we are moving into the category of cardigans, and the first one in the list is Zosia cardigan by Cheryl Mokhtari. It's a newer pattern, it came out March 2026 and it's been pretty popular. I've seen it in many places online and I'm not surprised why it's so popular, because it's very beautiful. The design is very unique. It gives off a little bit of vintage feel, which I really appreciate and like. And I think the color scheme that is picked on the sample images are just on point. It uses three different colors and together they look very cohesive and balanced. The recommended yarn for this cardigan is Isagur yarn soft, which is a blown yarn. Even though it's knitted with worsted weight yarn, this cardigan would be very lightweight. The gauge is 17 stitches. This cardigan has 145 projects on Ravelry. The next cardigan is Far and Old by Tricot Design. It's an older pattern, it came out September 2023, and it has this beautiful feminine bohemian looking look. It has these two rows of edges or lace, I don't know how you call it. The first association when I see this cardigan is the French brand Cezanne, they are making very beautiful clothes, so it's a compliment for this design. This pattern is knitted with fingering plus lace yarn which makes it DK and the gauge is 20 stitches. This cardigan has contiguous set-in sleeve construction. You knit it top down and back and forth as it is a cardigan. I really appreciate that it's a form fitted cardigan. There are a lot of oversized cardigans out there that I also very much like. They're It seems to be super trendy at the moment, but it's nice to have some change and some garments with a bit less possibilities and a bit more closely fitted. It's a pretty popular pattern, it has 158 projects on Ravelry. The next pattern is timeless cardigan and pullover by Sue Knits. You get two versions of the pattern. You can knit it up as a cardigan or as a sweater. And like the previous one, this is also more closely, more form fitted version of a cardigan. It has set in sleeve construction. This pattern is knitted up with Start with DK weight yarns, DK plus lace and the gauge is 20 stitches. This pattern came out a few years ago, February 2024, and it has 24 projects on Ravelry. The next one is Janet Cardigan by Mora Connect. It's a bit chunkier cardigan, you knit it up with worsted flat lace yarn which makes it iron and the gauge is 19 stitches. So it's a combination to get a pretty thick fabric. I think it's a very good basic chunky cardigan. It has good fit, it features double knitted button band to have very neat finishing. Looks very professional and a lot of people seem to agree with me because it's pretty popular. It has 296 projects on Ravelry. Let's talk about vests now. Vests are perfect as a layering piece. It would give you more styling options in your wardrobe and perfect autumn piece to have. The first vest we have is Oda Vest by Scala Studio. It's very beautiful balanced vest. It features two cables on the sides and then criss-crossed So, I'm going to go across the... tiny cables. I don't know how to explain it, but I like that it has a lot of texture, yet it doesn't like to take too much attention to the vest as well. So it has more balanced look. Overall I really like the designs Scala Studio makes. It's a brand that also sells knitwear and then they have some knitting patterns as well. These patterns are more on a pricier side but design wise on point. The next pattern is a super popular vest pattern And it's the Friday Sleepover by PetiteKnit. This vest features broken rib texture and it's very classical, simple, not much to say about it. It's knitted with fingering plus lace yarn which makes it DK, the gauge is 22 stitches. Very good combo again, fingering plus mohair. Yeah, can't go wrong with It's an older pattern, it came out March 2020 and it has 2086 projects on Ravelry, a very popular pattern. Next vest is more of a modern take on a slipover vest and it's the sleek slipover by Yui Yamamura. The shape of the vest is the showstopper here. It is a bit more wide on top and then you have this ribbing section. I don't know how some designers manage to put out a very simple pattern in a way or very simple design but yet it looks very unique and different and in this case it's achieved with the shape of the vest. This vest is worked top down seamlessly. It calls for bulky weight yarn, the gauge is 14.5 stitches. It wouldn't take long to knit it up and it's an older pattern, it came out March 2023 and it has 138 projects on Ravelry. Next we have another cable vest, it's the Maisie vest by Emily Henn and this time this cable vest look features v-neck and button band as well. Very beautiful cabled motif. It's a very stylish vest. It's knitted on a pretty tight gauge. It calls for light fingering and lace which makes it sport weight yarn. The gauge is 32 stitches so it would take a while to knit it up but from the sample images the end result is definitely Worth it. It's a new pattern, it came out August 2026 and it has 49 projects on Ravelry. The last pattern in this category is Betsy vest by Miranda Copeland and it's a colorful vest that has a cow motif on it. Very kind of simple fun pattern. There has been many Like animal-motif patterns out there that have gained a lot of popularity recently. There was a moment when everyone wanted to knit up fish-motif sweaters and cow-motif sweaters. At the time I didn't understand why people liked these patterns. They didn't speak with me so much. But now... I met this cow and I fell in love apparently. Definitely more of a statement piece to have in your wardrobe and it's definitely not everyone's cup of tea but I think we all should have some of the statement pieces in our hand-knitted wardrobe to add some variety. This pattern came out last Last year, May 2025, and it has 186 projects on Ravelry, so pretty popular one. Now let's talk about jackets. Jackets are perfect for days where you don't need a heavy coat, but you still need some warmth, and jackets are perfect for this. These patterns are knitted on a very dense gauge to give you more of the outer layer effect. The first pattern in this category is Haraboi Cardigan by Eikyo Knit. It's a very beautiful cabled textured cardigan or jacket that has actually a very unique construction. You start with the sleeve, so you knit this cardigan vertically, not horizontally. So it would be a very interesting technique and method to test out. The suggested yarn is Roma Fibre, which is iron weight yarn and the gauge is 18 stitches. It's a bit older pattern, it came out 2023 and it has 275 projects on Ravelry. The next pattern is the Dagmar jacket by PetiteKnit. It's a very popular pattern at the moment. Everyone seems to be knitting this one and no surprise why. The design is very beautiful, the stitch patterns are pretty easy to knit up usually and it's definitely worth checking out. I really like the diamond motifs on the jacket, it's very well balanced, beautiful modern design and it would be a good addition to anyone's wardrobe. This pattern came out September 2024 and it has 2114 projects on Ravelry as of now. The next pattern is the Fixed Cardigan by Georgia Fibers and as you can see we have a theme here. Many of these jackets have texture and cables going on and this is no different. It has a beautiful braid along the sleeve and then some of the cables along this unique This pattern came out May 2024 and it has 279 projects on Ravelry. The last pattern in this category is Hanna jacket by PetiteKnit. I wanted to add a simpler version of a jacket in this list and I think the Hanna jacket That would be perfect. It's a new pattern, came out September 2026 and yeah it's a very simple stockinette jacket. It has on sample images these cute buttons which I believe are wood buttons. This design features a higher neckline, a bit boxy fit, yeah very cute. Jacket. It's knitted up with aran weight yarn. The gauge is 18 stitches. As I said, it's a newer pattern. It came out September 2026 and it has 31 projects on Ravelry already. Now it's time to talk about the last category, the artsy knits. And I know you have a pattern that you've been thinking about knitting, but you have been putting it off. Maybe you think it's a bit too complicated or maybe you think it's a bit too out there design-wise and my invitation here is to knit it up this autumn. I know that these kind of patterns are a bit more risky. You maybe are not sure if you are able to complete it, or maybe you are not sure would you really wear it that much, but sometimes we need to take risks and the perfect time to do it is this autumn. Why to put off things? But I will also give you some pattern ideas as well, even though I know that you know what you want to knit. The first pattern in this category is Glaze Jumper by Rootman Designs. On the sample images you can see a man wearing this sweater but in the description it actually says that it's a unisex pattern and there are a few pictures where a woman is wearing it as well. It's a very unique colorwork design. It's knitted top down in the round. It has round yoke Construction. And the sample images give you two different options how to knit it up. If you want to have a bolder look, then you can knit the first section in one color, and then the second section in a different color. But there's also a more minimal design option, where you knitted one main color, and then the details of the color work with a second color. Both options look very good. A definitely a pattern you should check out. The next pattern is maybe a bit more classical and it's the Goldman diamond sweater by Naiad. It's very yeah classical in a way that I think in 10 years from now it would still be very stylish piece to wear and it also goes With the very trendy baba style as well, very boxy look. It's knitted up with worsted weight yarn, the gauge is 20 stitches and the collar work is knitted up with intarsia method because there are these bigger sections. Very stylish, cozy pattern. It came out August 2025 and it has 20 projects on Ravelry. The next pattern is Teo Sweater by Colibri by Johanna. It's a beautiful striped sweater, but instead of having regular stripes, these stripes are alternating the sleeves compared to the body. Very interesting and unique take on a striped sweater. This sweater is knitted with two strands of silk mohair. The gauge is 19 stitches. You knit it top down in the round and it has a thin sleeve construction. Very beautiful. Hi, everyone. Hi. The colors you pick can kind of give you very different Thank you very much for the wonderful, and This is... And I really did enjoy your presentation. And I'm so thankful to you. You're welcome. feels of the sweater. Thank you so much. You're welcome. You can pick more of a neutral colors but you can also Thank you. Thank you. Yeah. I'm looking forward to it. It's such a pleasure. use color like on the sample images for example. I think both your presentation and your presentation are very helpful. Thank you. And thank you, Jeff. Bye-bye. But I think that even if you would pick more Have a great day. Have a wonderful day. Thank you, everyone. of a neutral palette for the sweater Thank you. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. Because of the alternating stripes it's still very unique. Thank you. We're done. I'm going to get going now. I still have some internet problems. It's a new pattern. It came out May 2026 and it has 15 projects on Ravelry. I think the reason why it doesn't have so many projects yet is that it came out in May. And it's a warm sweater actually and many people don't want to knit with two strands of mohair during the summer. So I think this pattern will have much more popularity in upcoming months. The last sweater is Lumber Sweater by The Knit Bees On. It's a beautiful colorwork sweater which has a classic checkered gingham pattern. That's how it says in the pattern description and this motif is very trendy at the moment and what I do like about this trend is that it's very classical as well so it wouldn't go out of style. It's knitted with lace plus lace which makes it sport weight. The gauge is 18 stitches. 18 stitches doesn't sound so sporty to me but it is what it is. And it's knitted top down in the round. It has saddle shoulder construction and the colorwork is knitted up with the stranded colorwork method. Another beautiful pattern to try out. This pattern came out January 2025 and it has 22 projects on Ravelry. So these were the patterns and I actually really would like to know what you plan to knit this autumn. Because I don't know who are watching these videos. I would really like to know are you more of a beginner, intermediate, advanced to get a better understanding and it would give me some insight what type of videos to make in the future. So please give me some insight what are you knitting at the moment or what do you plan to knit this autumn season. So, thank you for watching, I'm glad you are here and I hope to see you in the next video. Bye bye.
