Are You Ready for Sweater Weather?

You probably know by now that I am not a huge fan of BuzzFeed, or Internet quizzes, but I couldn’t resist sharing this quiz to help you determine if you’re ready for sweater weather.

I’m pretty sure you don’t need a quiz to know if you are or aren’t, but it’s still kind of fun.

You get a point for every statement you agree with, ranging from things like “Seeing my breath create a little cloud of fog fills my heart with JOY” to “I wish I could live inside a sweater.”

It will surprise no one that my quiz results determined I was born ready for sweater weather.

If you’re ready but your knit sweater wardrobe is a little lacking, I’m going to hook you up with some great project ideas and advice through the month. For now I’d love to know if you’ve knit sweaters before and if you have any questions you’d like me to answer this month.

Or, do you have a favorite sweater pattern? Share it!

I’m excited to focus on sweaters with you this month. Let’s dive in and get cozy.

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.
