Although I’m partial to baby blanket knitting patterns and, I think, always will be, I do love knitting sweaters for kids as well. Kid sweaters are fun! You can try out embellishments or new stitches in knitting patterns without committing to an entire blanket. And unlike the sweaters I knit for me, kids’ sweaters almost always turn […]
10 Nautical Baby Blanket Knitting Patterns
I’m doing a lot of knitting these days. It makes me feel like I’m doing something on these days when we can’t leave the house to do much else. I feel so productive, creating things at home. I know a lot of people are doing different things while they’re home – baking bread, learning an […]
Free Baby Blanket Knitting Pattern — The Dropstitch Blanket
Wanna know one of my favorite parts about knitting blankets for babies? They’re small enough that I can have the fun of experimenting with different patterns and stitches, without being locked into a project for six months (usually!). My only problem is that I’m running out of babies. Does this happen to you? When you […]
10 Adorable Baby Blanket Knitting Patterns
I love giving hand-knit blankets for baby presents. They’re special and unique (like babies!), but they can be pretty simple knitting projects and you don’t have to worry about them fitting. In fact, if I don’t have the exact yarn or needles for a pattern, usually I just use what I have and it works […]
11 Beautiful Lacy Baby Blanket Knitting Patterns
Earlier this week, I asked a question in our newsletter (do you get the newsletter? You can sign up to get it at the bottom of this post or over to the right there –>) After spending a week in Hawaii, I was wondering – what do people in warmer climates knit? It’s currently snowing […]
Make this easy knitting pattern – Mock Cable Baby Blanket
I love the look of cable knits. They make such gorgeous hats and sweaters. I think cable knitting scares a lot of people, but it’s one of those things you just have to sit down and…do…and you realize after you try it once or twice that the concept is really pretty simple. It is not, however, […]
A Chunky Garter Stripe Blanket Knitting Pattern
As I’ve mentioned before, I’m a little obsessed with knitting chunky blankets right now. They’re just so squishy and warm and beautiful and warm and soft…and…warrrrrrm! We’re all about the hygge when it’s cold outside and these make it so tempting to sit on my couch with a book (or more yarn!) and a cup […]
10 Gifts for Knitters in Your Life
This is always dangerous territory for me. I try to write about gifts for knitters…and I inevitably end up tempted to buy it all. It can be justified, though, right? It’s not really for me. It’s for me to make nice things for everyone else. I’m a giver. A sacrificer. And if I must buy some personalized knitting […]
A Free Delightfully Chunky Blanket Knitting Pattern
I’m obsessed with super-bulky blankets right now. I love the way they look. I love the way they feel. I love that they have some heft (seriously, it’s like sleeping under a weighted blanket). And I love, love, love that they’re so frigging warm. I’m always cold in this house. Everyone else complains about being […]
Easy Knitting Pattern: Knit The Simple Sailboat Blanket
This easy knitting pattern might be my favorite baby blanket I’ve made recently. I think maybe I say that about all of them because baby blankets, in general, are delightful, and other than someone picking a bad color, I’ve never seen a truly ugly baby blanket. But I especially love this one. Look! Tiny boats! […]
