Knitted poncho/stole, feather-light - very easy
- also in thicker yarns: nice and warm



(For purchase/download, please click the image)

One size - pattern and cut are absolutely suitable for beginners.

This is a brief pattern for a feather-light and very easy-to-knit poncho in one size, made from just 100 g of KidSilk (Austermann). For beginners, I recommend (lace) yarns without mohair, as mohair is almost impossible to unravel.

The PDF pattern includes the preview image.

By the way: The poncho can also be knitted nicely as a warm outdoor poncho with thick wool, 100 g - 100 m, using needle size 8.0. Required yarn amount then approx. 700 g. The stitch count is always based on your individual gauge.
To convert your individual gauge, I recommend this: 
READ OFF instead of calculating - PDF table for knitting and crochet
as well as my blog post: Converting gauge - here's how..

Required knitting skills:
casting on, edge stitch (your favorite edge stitch), knit and purl stitches, bind off.

Knitting Pattern: Traditional Corset / Top

This (traditional) corset is laced; alternatively, you can also attach (traditional) buttons—whichever you prefer.

The instructions are based on size S/M—but thanks to the pattern and lacing, it stretches to fit up to size 42. Any size is possible —easy to adjust due to the simple pattern—and suitable even for beginners.

Basic knitting skills and the ability to crochet chain stitches are sufficient
(everything is explained with illustrations in the separate PDF)


Included in the download:

• PDF knitting pattern (includes images from the photo gallery)
• PDF Knitting Basics – Illustrated Basic Knitting Techniques

You’ll need approximately 250 g of yarn with a yardage of 125 m to 130 m per 50 g for needle sizes 3–4 and a gauge of approximately 22 sts x 30 rows = 10 cm x 10 cm, as indicated on the skein label.
Used here: Size 3.5 knitting needles and size 3.0 crochet hook.

Standard knitting supplies: measuring tape, scissors, yarn needle, stitch holder, or additional circular needles for holding stitches.

Baby feet love this. Leftover yarn can be wonderfully used for those sweet little feet.

  plus sketch

Basic knitting skills are enough.
Difficulty level for baby shoes: easy; for baby socks: medium (easy for experienced knitters).

Materials:
The baby socks are knitted with a size 2.5 set of double-pointed needles using 4-ply sock yarn (approx. 15 g for sizes 15 to 22). A cable needle (size 2.5) is required for the cable.

For the baby shoes, I used 50 g of soft merino yarn with approx. 120 m - 130 m yardage per 50 g ball, color petrol, for knitting needle size 3–4, approx. 20 g of matching leftover yarn in the same yarn weight, color eggshell white or light beige (= leftover yarn). Gauge according to the ball band: 22 stitches x 30 rows = 10 x 10 cm; used here: knitting needle 3.5, for the bow a crochet hook 3.0.

In the crocheted light blue fur jacket with matching fur hat and dark blue loop scarf, Barbie is wrapped up warm and chic for cold winter days. You’ll need a leftover bit of Doudou by Lang Yarns and dark blue sock yarn for the loop scarf. Of course, you can also crochet the jacket in other colors, but I think the ice blue is perfect for winter! The fluffy yarn is quite easy to work with, since you can still see the crocheted stitches here. The cut of the jacket is very simple and can therefore be adjusted very easily with a few more or fewer rows or stitches if it otherwise shouldn’t fit.

With leftover blue sock yarn (here, Opal: Vincent van Gogh series), you can crochet beautiful winter sweaters for Barbie dolls. The color gradients create stunning patterns that really make the sweaters stand out.
The design of this sweater is very simple, so even beginners won’t have any trouble with it. There’s also a pattern for a pair of pants that you can crochet in blue as well, if you’d like. A great way to use up small leftovers!

100 g Fila Doro Killary or Schulana Donegal Tweed, gauge according to the yarn label: 16 sts x 22 rows = 10 x 10 cm, 95% virgin wool, 5% cashmere, 50 g = 95 m yardage, knitting needles 4.5–5.5, used here: size 5.0 circular knitting needle with 40 cm cable length (60 cm cable length is a bit tight at the start of knitting, but can also be used); stitch marker, cable needle, yarn needle for weaving in ends, tape measure, scissors

— simple, but not boring!
