There are countless sources for vintage patterns used as recipes for vests and sweaters worn in the mid-1930's when this charming story takes place. Cropped cardigans and pullovers, multi-colored Faire Isles, either knit as vests or worn with Peter Pan collars, jumpers, and the like, have roared back into fashion in the past few years, and there are modern patterns to be found with that vintage look.<span><br><br></span></p><a href="http://www.knitnscribble.com/2021/02/all-creatures-great-and-small-stirs.html#more">Read more »</a>Knitnscribble.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01541648811296792581noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-756191383675523396.post-45203306981438886412019-03-07T16:54:00.000-05:002019-03-07T16:54:20.538-05:00Project Linus needs blankets - knit, crochet, quilt<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

There are chapters in all 50 states of the US. Over 7.3 million blankets have been donated since 1995. You can donate your dollars or knit and crochet baby blankets; as well, quilt or stitch them up on your sewing machine. Children with devastating diseases and newborn babies are equally in need of the security and warmth of your blanket.<br>
<br>
Read the instructions carefully before you start knitting or crocheting. Hospitals will not accept blankets with smoke, dryer sheet, or detergent chemical odors. Quilting patterns or knit and crochet are available on the Project Linus site, plus there are many easy baby blanket patterns here at knitnscribble. Please read on for information concerning your future charitable efforts.<br>

Tracy Wright has posted her "cabin style" sock pattern you can knit cuff down on US 7 (4.5mm) needles with worsted to finish "Mountain Drive" for a size small or medium or use a US 8 or 9 with Aran yarn to make the large and extra large sock sizes! How clever! And it is a free pattern until March 10th, using the coupon code below. Download it now, a classic holiday gift, boot socks, that will take you no time at all to finish knitting.<br>

"Ingot," an oversized cowl, promises to be your go-to favorite scarf for fall. The cowl pattern, written by Lisa Mutch of Northbound knitting and hand-dyed yarn fame, is a free pattern download. The yarns are exquisite and dyed to order in your preferred colorway.<br>
<br>
This cowl project requires two skeins or 320 yards (293m) of DK weight yarn. Knit on a US 11 (8.0m) circular needle, the pattern is an easy one, two pattern rows, knit in three sections, with straight stockinette in the middle section.<br>

Sampler baby blankets and throws can be knit in squares and sewn together or knit as one piece. Blankets are lovely fall and wintertime projects, as the colder it gets and farther you knit, the warmer you are.<br>
<br>
<br>
This Aran christening blanket seen here was knit as one piece with one colorway of yarn and a separate border knit in cotton and sewn on. Knitnscribble also ran a quarter inch ribbon through the fluted lace top and tied the ends in a bow at each corner before gifting.<br>

An easy free knitting pattern, you can almost finish in a one-night sitting. Pattern instructions are now available in eleven (11) different languages, and the English version accommodates Aran, worsted, OR sport yarn, great for stash-busting, too. With variegated yarns, you can knit more than one pair and mix and match, if one is lost. I just love this fingerless mitts pattern, hope you will, too.<br>

It's a very versatile design, easy pattern, and is written in sizes infant to 4XL. The sweater pattern is called "Harvest" and it is a free pattern. The unisex design is a great school sweater for children, minus the pin. What a great way to begin your fall knitting with a one-piece, no sewing up sweater! That's right, once it's off the needles, this cardi is finished! With a very generous plus-size range, it is equally a generous gift from the designer.<br>

Years ago, knitnscribble realized after knitting the old smocked dishcloth that favorite stitch patterns could be used to knit new original designs. Pattern stitches aren't just meant for dishcloths; they can actually serve as big swatches of inspiration.<br>
<br>
This morning, I stumbled across these lovely baby blankets on Instagram knit by Norwegian, Strikkly Speaking, and realized the stitch was the same as Windbreaker, the sweater I had just finished. The star stitch has been relaxed in the blanket to achieve a softness desired for baby.<br>

Knitted Knockers come in all shapes, sizes, and colors and are available free worldwide to breast cancer patients who don't undergo breast reconstruction. If you knit or crochet, there are free knitted knocker patterns in several languages and breast prosthetic kits you can purchase. And, yes, there are endless possibilities for charity knitting and crochet for hospitals and doctors. Yesterday, knitnscribble posted a link to a video from one knitted knocker organization on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/freeknitpatterns">Facebook</a> and the reception from breast cancer survivors and their friends was overwhelming, so thought it needed more explanation.<br>

In the early days of summer, way back in the dinosaur age, I learned to knit at about age 8. This post contains links for easy free patterns, perfect for vacations. Summer is the perfect time to learn to knit or to crochet, away at camp, sitting at home in the AC or vacationing. You can even teach yourself with YouTube videos. There is an abundance of free patterns, easy patterns like a dishcloth, which offer a quick path to success, and make useful gifts as well. Cotton yarn can be purchased for about $2.00, a pair of US 8 (5mm) straight needles, or an H hook, and you are on your way. Read on for other easy knitting projects paired with links for free patterns to knit and crochet.<br>

It's a great summertime project for beginning and vintage knitters. The unisex size range is 2 to 46, for men, women, and children. Knit on a US 10 (6mm) with Aran or worsted yarn, the pullover sweater's classic style is a timeless unisex design.<br>

Michelle Hunter's new shawl knitting pattern, "Transient," is perfect for summer knitting. It is a free pattern and uses "Concentric," a new gradient worsted yarn by Hikoo for Skacel. The colors are glorious and your knitting will be fast as you move from one color to the other and also one stitch to the other. Concentric is 100% baby Alpaca, so this lovely shawl can be worn on cool summer nights or warmly around your neck this winter as a triangle scarf. The finished scarf or shawl is 53" at the widest depth and 27" deep.<br>

Sitting here listening to this Nor'easter - the wind, rain, and snow battering the trees and the gate banging in rhythm, the reality of knitting Lone Kjeldsen's "Windbreaker" pattern became quite clear. It's a wonderful design for layering in the fall, when my granddaughter goes off to college.<br>
<br>
I chose Tahki's Donegal Tweed, Irish spun in Dublin, which harkens more memories still. In my younger days, Irish yarn was the choice of natural fiber yarn snobs, especially here in the Northeast. While "Windbreaker" doesn't have any cables or bobbles worn on St. Patrick's Day, it does have stars.<br>

The First World War began with the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand of Austria in 1914 and ended on November 11, 1918, remembered as Armistice Day. WWI was one of the deadliest wars in history; UK deaths numbered 700,000 out of an estimated 16 million casualties. The Cornwall Regimental Museum poppy project is seeking to honor all of Cornwall's WWI dead veterans with handmade poppies created from patterns or imaginative artfulness. Over 4200 poppies: knitted, crocheted, embroidered, beaded, and even paper ones made by scouts have already been collected, and now the goal has been more than doubled to 9,687. All sorts of free poppy patterns are available for knit or crochet poppies.<br>

A snowy day and knitting go together like tea and biscuits, popcorn and movies, fish and chips, and spaghetti and meatballs. Well, you get the idea. During the last few snowy days of this winter, I have finally had time to write down a fair isle pattern for a classic unisex baby sweater I've knit several times without a pattern, because I loved the look so much. This little Fair Isle pullover for babies and toddlers is therefore called "Snowy Day." It's a quick baby gift with lasting qualities.<br>
