Our patterns

Biggan is passionate about creating designs for stylish, colourful garments that will last you a lifetime.

Biggan and our sample knitters test and re-test every single pattern to ensure they are easy to follow and simple to knit. Every pattern comes in a wide range of sizes to enable you to achieve a tailored fit regardless of your height or shape. And with 64 vibrant colours to choose from, everyone can knit garments that suit them, without being limited to the current fashion palettes.
