The Best Free Knitting Patterns for Spring
This spring, check out these free knitting patterns to refresh your knitting inspiration
I'm a year round knitter, so when spring hits, I keep right on with my search for free knitting patterns. I just shift my focus from scarves and heavy afghans to light sweaters, pretty crafts, and decorative items that will let me keep on with my hobby while giving me that feeling of spring in the air!
And as usual, I can't bear to keep the best patterns to myself -- so here are the best free knitting patterns online for spring.
1. Cable knit hat
This isn't Grandma's sunhat! Sure, it'll shield your eyes from the glare, but that's where the similarities end. This cute free knitting hat pattern could have come from any trendy store in the mall. If you don't make it for yourself, you'll definitely think of someone else who would love to have it!
2. Sweet Hex child's hood
When you're finding free knitting patterns, you sometimes stumble across a gem -- and this is one of them. It's a perfect hood (not just for children, in spite of the name) for those in-between months where the wind still carries a chill. Better yet, though, it's a delicate, beautiful, vintage inspired pattern.
3. Knit strawberries
These are so much fun to make, and an awesome free knitting pattern for beginners. It falls into the category of quick and easy free knitting patterns. Plop them in a strawberry basket and give them as spring gifts to the children in the neighborhood, who will love to play with them. Or stuff them with catnip and use them as toys... but you didn't hear that from me!
4. Girls' knit dress
This is absolutely too cute for words, one of the sweetest free knitting patterns online. Any little girl (usually toddler) would look adorable in this hand knit dress. Things that work on kids sometimes don't work on grownups anymore, and this is a prime example: a gorgeous little dress that would look out of place on a big body but fits perfectly on a little girl.
Remember, the end of winter doesn't have to mean the end of knitting! If you're anything like me, in fact, it will be just the beginning. So find a new stock of lighter, airy yarns and enjoy embarking on these free knitting patterns this spring.
