To copyright a knitting pattern in the USA the pattern must be new and original. Copyright is automatically extended to a work once it is created, but to further benefit from copyright protection a pattern can be registered. If you are concerned about copyrighting a certain pattern you may want to discuss the issue with a lawyer familiar with copyright law is the USA to ensure you are protecting your pattern to the full extent possible.
