Free Knitting Patterns for Summer Fun
More free knitting patterns to keep your needles clicking in the warmer months.
Every year at this time, I start looking for new free knitting patterns summer won't destroy. You know what I mean -- who wants to bury themselves under a pound of wool and knit an afghan in the summer heat? But if you're like me, you're not going to let the sun keep your needles still -- and you don't have to! There are tons of free knit patterns that make fantastic summer treasures.
Here are a few favorites for your enjoyment!
This soft, pretty, and very feminine shawl is perfect for those sleeveless summer dresses. It's pretty enough to wear to a wedding or fancy event once the sun goes down and you grab a chill, but casual enough to pair with jeans -- which makes it the perfect summer accessory.
2. Tea wallet
Are you carrying tea -- or summer water flavoring packets -- in a plastic bag or loose in your purse? Then you'll love this source of easy knitting patterns, where you can learn to make a wallet specifically for your tea and drinks. These are super easy, super fast patterns, so you can always make a lot and sell them at your next garage sale.
Here again, we have free knit patterns perfect for summer: a lacy top that can go over jeans and a t-shirt or a great dress and or skirt combo. This one looks professionally made when you finish.
Remember sunsuits? This is a great opportunity to knit a new baby gift that isn't warm, itchy, uncomfortable, or set to be too small by the time it's needed. Baby will love to wear this cute sunsuit, and you'll love making it.
These placemats would look fantastic at a barbecue, and they make fantastic hostess gifts for a casual get-together (if you can bear to part with them). These are also great easy knitting patterns for those looking to expand their horizons but still nervous about knitting actual clothing.
Don't let the summer heat keep you from knitting -- not with these fantastic free knitting patterns to carry you through!
