A Couple More Cute Projects for Valentine’s Day

by

check out a couple of great last minute valentine knitting patternsI’m having a little trouble coming to grips with the fact that it’s almost February, but if you’ve skipped out on crafting for Valentine’s Day so far, there are still some fun projects you can make in time for the holiday and enjoy whenever you want.

I like these little I-cord hearts that are used in the Knitted Heart Bouquet from Studio Knits (shown in a video but it’s pretty easy to figure out the basics just by looking at the pictures). These would be cute to decorate presents, use in a child’s room or just for fun any time of year.

Lion Brand has a cute pair of Cabled Heart Boot Cuffs that would be great to wear on an afternoon date or any time around the holiday and beyond, because who doesn’t need a little more love in their life all the time? They’re cute in pink but would be nice in just about any color you like to go with your outfit and boots.

Are you knitting anything for Valentine’s Day? I’d love to hear about it!

Knits to Make for Your Labubu

Maybe it’s not your Labubu, but if you’ve ever looked at one of those creepy cute dolls and thought “what that thing needs is a sweater,” you’ve come to the right place. These Labubu knitting patterns are super cute and easy to make whatever your skill level. 

If you want to keep it super basic, there’s this Labubu sweater from flourish AND fiber. It uses sock yarn and is worked from the top down in the round with a bit of ribbing on the edges but otherwise in stockinette stitch. It says it’s meant to fit all current regular Labubu plush pendants. 

Another cute pendant project is the Bubu Cardi by Ginko B. This free Ravelry download uses fingering weight yarn and only uses about 35 yards of yarn, so it’s a perfect scrap knitting project. 

Give your Labubu some springtime flair with this sweet little dress pattern by About Yarn. It’s for a 6.5 inch/17 cm doll and is worked in the round using DK weight yarn. 

Or get them ready for cooler weather with this cute beanie from Stephanie Connolly. Available as a free Ravelry download, this pattern uses DK weight yarn and has a hole in the top for Labubu’s ears and pendant to pull through. 

If you want a more whimsical look, try the Labubu headdress by Shino Craft. This one uses sport weight yarn and makes your critter look like a flower. You can buy it on Ravelry.

Add a touch of colorwork with this adorable heart sweat for a Labubu. This pattern is from kelmadeSG and uses fingering or DK weight yarn (maybe depending on what size doll you have?) and is worked flat in pieces. 

Shirley Durmaz made this cute hoodie for a Labubu with two strands of fingering weight yarn (or you could use a DK weight). It’s available on Ravelry.

If your Labubu fan is also a Taylor Swift fan, you’ll want to knit the free Labubu V Neck Cardigan, inspired by Taylor’s Folklore sweater. It uses fingering weight yarn and you can find it on Ravelry.
