                           STARGROVE IS AN UNCOMMONLY
                           HEARTFELT HAT PATTERN
                                              Some years ago, the women of Tyra’s family attended her uncle’s
                                              wedding wearing outfits specially made of the same star-motif fabric.
                                              The gesture demonstrated to all in attendance that they were
                                              members of the groom’s family and in full support of the union.
                                              This issue’s theme drew Tyra’s mind to the supportive power of
                                              roots in all their forms, from her own family roots to the mottled
                                              pink and brown roots of a tree.
                                              Trees form family units in much the way people do. Stands or groves
                                              of nearby trees interlink their roots below ground to balance one
                                              another’s nutrient production, communicating via an underground
                                              network of mycorrhizal fungi that live on their roots. When one
                                              member of a stand or grove is struggling, other members divert
                                              some of their own supply to keep the sick one going.

                                           The genus cladonia are the moss-like lichens. The next time you
                                           see them, pause to say a word of thanks for all the work they do
                                           in silence.

                                              Look at roots for long enough and you’ll notice their balletic strength
                                              and movement. They grow and stretch, sprawling horizontally to
                                              weave around obstacles great and small in search of nourishment.
                                              They are seemingly independent but trace back to a single tree,
                                              coordinating their efforts with the other members of their company
                                              in a choreography of wood and soil.
                                              The cables skimming this cardigan’s front mimic the gnarled beauty
                                              of roots sprawling across the surface of the soil and Saknes means
                                              ‘roots’ in Latvian, Zanete’s mother tongue. The design’s textures draw
                                              on roots’ apparently random and chaotic activity, which is always
                                              governed by an internal logic. We adore how the elegantly graduated
                                              cable sequences are emphasised by the smooth and evenly dyed,
                                              worsted-weight Merino yarn.
                                              The construction moves top down, working the upper back first
                                              with shoulder shaping by short rows and optional waist shaping
                                              to let you customise the fit. Upper front pieces are worked from
                                              picked-up stitches and shaped with increases. The fronts and
                                              backs are joined beneath the arm and worked straight down.
                                              Sleeves are picked up and worked down last. This construction
                                              results in a nice amount of structure that sits well on the shoulders
                                              while also being easy to adjust to your perfect length.

                                           Our Brocéliande’s classic vibes make any outfit feel extra special.
                                           The vintage-feeling waffle texture is constructed with simple slipped
                                           stitches that are knit flat until the piece is just right for your head,
                                           then the special knotlike closure is created by seaming the ends
                                           together. The chainette and Merino fluff yarn we’ve chosen creates
                                           an otherworldly halo effect, which you could recreate with a
                                           similarly constructed yarn or with a smooth yarn held alongside
                                           a strand of mohair or suri alpaca from your stash. If you aren’t
                                           into having a halo, a smooth yarn would also work!

                                              Whatever your aesthetic views, our tree friends are greatly helped by
                                              verdant mosses, which protect and feed them. Mosses break down
                                              forest substrata to release nutrients that trees can easily consume,
                                              and mosses absorb plenty of water to regulate soil moisture. Plus they
                                              safeguard the wellbeing of the roots by preventing soil erosion. In the
                                              tree’s own ecosystem, those tiny mosses are star players. If a rolling
                                              stone gathers no moss, we’re quite happy to sit still.

                                           The overstory is the top layer of the forest, made up of the green
                                           crowns of the trees. Viewed from the side, the branches of the trees’
                                           crowns appear to interlock, even as they leave space for one another.
                                           The upward-reaching branches’ stacked appearance is reflected in
                                           this hat’s cable pattern and elegantly defined in a crisp but soft
                                           Merino and Targhee sportweight blend. Worked from the bottom
                                           up in comforting ribbing and straightforward cables, we find projects
                                           like this gratifying to make as they knit up over just a few evenings
                                           and look so impressive.
