Cozy Cubes Jacket is All About the Details

February 8, 2024 by Sarah White

When I first saw the Cozy Cubes Jacket by Hinterm Stein I thought it didn’t look handmade. In this case that’s a compliment, though I don’t know that it always would be. When it comes to this jacket what I mean is that the details are so great and it’s so well done that it looks like it could have been cut and tailored from fabric rather than knit by hand.

This is such a classic piece that you’re sure to want to wear it all the time, so you can add to the classic feel by stitching it up in a neutral color like Hinterm did, or change it up for something bold or your favorite color.

The pattern calls for either a worsted weight yarn or a lighter yarn held together with a strand of mohair, which would just amplify the irresistible nature of this garment.

It’s worked in one piece from the top down and has a subtle cube pattern made with knits and purls. The vent in the back that’s closed with buttons adds to the tailored look, as does the collar.

The pattern is available in nine sizes from a chest measurement of 32 inches (81 cm) to 60 inches (152.5 cm) and offers in-between sizing information up to a 64 inch chest (162.5 cm). There are also two length options, a sort of standard sweater or jacket length and a longer coat option.

You can get the pattern in English and German on Ravelry.

Hinterm makes awesome knit jacket patterns, which you can also see in the Ripple Jacket pattern. The shape of that one is really great, too, but it’s a different look from Cozy Cubes. If you love her designs, I’ve also shared the summer gansey, a great henley style top with decorative purl ridges.

A Sweet Skater Dress to Knit

I know knitting a dress sounds like a major time commitment. And that’s before I even tell you that this particular dress, the Sixth Ave Skater Dress by Briana Luppino, is worked in light fingering weight yarn. 

But would you just take a moment to look at it and tell me if it doesn’t look like it would be worth all the time you would spend knitting it? And it’s miles of stockinette stitch so it’s actually beginner friendly and a great semi-mindless knit you can take with you on your travels this summer and wear when it is done. 

The dress is worked from the top down with tank straps, a scoop neck, waist shaping and a flowy skirt for a fun and comfortable fit. 

The pattern has 10 sizes, with finished bust measurements ranging from 28 to 64 inches, or 71.5 to 163 cm. The sample shown was worked with 4 inches/10 cm of negative ease at the bust, and the designer says most people like between 2 and 6 inches/5 to 15 cm of negative ease in the bust and around 10 inches/25.4 cm positive ease in the hips. 

(To refresh your memory, negative ease means the measurement of the garment is smaller than your actual body measurement, while positive ease is bigger than your body.)

To pick a size you’d work from the bust measurement because you can always add more or fewer decreases as you need to get your desired fit at the waist and hips. And because it’s worked from the top down you can try it on as often as you like to make sure it’s the perfect fit. 

The I-cord edgings give the dress a super casual feel, and I think this would be a great one to add to your summer rotation. (Yes, even with a wool blend yarn.)

You can see lots of cute finished versions and grab a copy of the pattern for yourself on Ravelry.
