A Short History of Argyle

Majority of argyle consists layers of extending motifs, adding a sense of three: dimensionality, texture, and mobility. Usually, there is an overlapping of crisscross diagonal lines on solid diamonds. As a knitting pattern, argyle is mainly accomplished using the intarsia technique (a technique used to create patterns with multiple colors).

The argyle pattern comes from the tartan of Clan Campbell of Argyll in Western Scotland. It was used for plaids and kilts, and from the decorated socks worn by Scottish highlanders since the 17th century generally known tartan hose. Argyle knitwear fashion was a hit in Great Britain and then the USA after World War I. Toward the end of the 18th century, the argyle pattern became intensely famous due to its mass production.

Today, you can see that argyle patterns can be in any design—whether in shirts, skirts, polos, hankies, socks, and so much more. Because of its unique layout, it can really get people’s attention, especially those who love designs with particular patterns. Not just that, argyle patterns come in different colors too. No wonder why it created a huge impact in the fashion industry.
