Adorable Little Girls Sweater – Free Knitting Pattern

Cutest Free Knitting Pattern Alert! I just fell in love with this adorable knit project—and this time, I’m not just daydreaming about making it… I’m actually casting on soon! Even better? I already have the perfect person in mind to gift it to.

This free knitting pattern is from Caron International, and it’s designed to be made with Caron Simply Soft yarn, which is one of my go-to favorites. If you’ve never used Simply Soft before, you’re in for a treat. It’s incredibly soft, has a beautiful drape, and comes in a rainbow of shades—solid colors, variegated tones, and heathered hues that make every project pop.

Whether you’re looking for an easy knitting project or just want to try something new with soft acrylic yarn, this pattern is a must-try. It’s perfect for beginners and seasoned knitters alike—and yes, it’s completely free to download.

Seriously, if you’ve been searching for a fun, cozy, and colorful knitting idea to gift or keep, this one is worth bumping to the top of your project list.

I’ll share my progress soon—can’t wait to see how yours turns out too!

Knitwear designers can get inspiration from almost anything when it comes to re-creating a color scheme, an image or a texture in stitches. Sometimes the inspiration isn’t always obvious in the finished project, but sometimes it’s more literal.

That’s the way it is with the Tin Ceiling Blanket from Purl Soho. Not just because the inspiration is in the name, but if you’ve ever seen one of these old ceilings you can see that the design of the blanket is quite similar to the pattern of the tin tiles.

This is also a good example of the idea that you don’t have to use fancy stitch patterns or lots of color to make a big impact with your knits. This single-color blanket (designed by Gianna Mueller and inspired by a washcloth and towel set designed by Sandi Rosner) is made completely with knits and purls, other than slipped stitches at the beginning of rows to make neater edges.

The pattern is written out row by row, but there’s also a chart, which means this project is a great opportunity to practice reading a chart where you can check your work against the written pattern if you need to.

It comes in two sizes, a crib blanket and a throw. The yarn used in the sample is an organic cotton sold by the cone, which is a great way to get a large quantity of yarn and have fewer ends to weave in. In fact, you can knit either size of the blanket with just one cone of yarn, which isn’t inexpensive but makes you a great, sturdy, heirloom quality but still washable blanket you’ll use for years to come. (Of course you can use any sport weight yarn you like to make this blanket.)
