We present a comprehensive classification of invariants of knots and links associated with irreducible representations of \uqslN{ }, when the parameter of quantization $q$ is a root of unity. We demonstrate that, besides the standard HOMFLY-PT invariants, which are associated with representations with highest and lowest weights, non-trivial invariants can be associated only with nilpotent representations with parameters. We define the corresponding invariants and discuss their relations with standard invariants at particular values of parameters.
