When you commission a knit through Bertolette, we’ll work together to select & customize a pattern that’s perfect for the look you have in mind.
Below are examples of knitwear patterns by designers from around the world, each with their own distinct style and approach to the craft. Browse through them and take note of what catches your eye - are there certain textures, colors, or silhouettes you gravitate towards?

Designers starred with an * are listed in the Size Inclusive Collective Repository, which highlights designers who grade to at least a 60” chest measurement.
Why have I included other designers without that designation?
Most are designers who have expanded their sizing range in recent years, but have older patterns which do not meet the criteria.
Some are pattern libraries from yarn companies, not individual designers, so they would not be listed in the repository.
It was important for me to showcase a diverse range of designers, some from countries with different sizing standards than the US.
Other designers offer a size range which reaches in the other direction, offering mature style options to folks who might otherwise be relegated to kids’ patterns.
