Bluey Knitting Patterns

by

It seems the favorite kids show for both children and adults these days is Bluey, and while there are a lot more Bluey themed crochet projects than there are knitting ones, I was able to find a few Bluey knitting patterns if you want to make them for a kiddo (or an adult!) in your life.

We’ll start with the characters, of which I could only find Bluey and Bingo knit doll patterns, but you could probably change the size and colors to make them different characters.

This version from Knits n Giggles by Stacey uses rectangles for the body so it’s a good choice for newer knitters. It does have colorwork on the body to make their spots and stripes.

Yarn Haven by Page has another version that’s all worked flat on two needles and seamed together. This one uses DK weight yarn and has the color changes for both Bluey and Bingo.

If you like loom knitting you can try this Bluey loom knitting pattern from Illoominated Design Co. It uses blanket yarn and can be worked all on a 31 peg loom or you can use smaller looms to make the limbs and other features if you have them.

If you’d rather knit something with Bluey on it, there are a few options there, too. Dr. Ella Horn has a Bluey sweater sized for kids aged 4-10, which uses DK weight yarn and has super cute stripes on the sleeves. You can find this one on Ravelry. Or try the Bluey Toddler Jumper from Not Just Nana’s Knit on Ravelry. This one uses DK yarn and is sized for 12-24 months and 24-36 months.

Not Just Nana’s Knit also has a baby blanket pattern on Ravelry featuring Bluey. 

Arianna Soloway has a cute hoodie pattern sizes for ages 6 months to 8 years that can be made in colors to suit Bluey or Bingo. I love the little ears and kangaroo pouch! This one is worked in worsted weight yarn and is available on Ravelry.

And if you’re thinking about Christmas you can stitch up this adorable Bluey inspired Christmas stocking, from Rebecca Roberts on Ravelry.

Add a Little Lace to Your Knitting Patterns

If you’re new to lace knitting or just aren’t sure how to incorporate the technique into garments, check out these tops and sweaters that use lace as a decorative element.

The easiest lace out there is eyelets, and you can practice them plenty with this eyelet covered sweater from Knitcro Addict. It uses light/DK weight yarn and is worked in four pieces knit flat. It’s intended to be a little cropped and a little oversized, and includes sizes XS to XXL in the pattern.

If you’re in parts of the world where it’s getting colder as you read this, the Nora sweater from Bummbul might be a good choice. This is actually a great one for learning lace because it’s worked in super bulky yarn, which makes it easier to see what you’re doing and makes the lace super graphic. This one just comes in one size, with a 42 inch (106) cm bust, but that could fit a variety of people depending on how much ease you like.

Minimi Knit Design has a cute allover lace cardigan worked in one piece from the bottom up. It’s worked in lace weight mohair held double, which maybe isn’t the best for those new to lace (because it can be hard to rip out) but it sure is pretty. Sizes range to fit from 30 to 66 inches/76 to 168 cm bust measurements.

If you’d rather not have lace all over your sweater, you can knit the Lumi sweater from Originally Lovely, which has a chevron lace pattern on the yoke and is otherwise worked in reverse stockinette stitch. (It’s worked inside out so you don’t have to purl every stitch.) The pattern has 9 sizes from XS to 5XL and uses worsted weight yarn.

Or try the super romantic sookie blouse from Trust the mojo (available on Ravelry). This sweet top is started working flat from the bottom up and has a V-neck and I-cord edgings. The sleeves are worked separately in the round, and the pieces are all joined together to work in one piece to finish off the top. It comes in eight sizes and is available in English and French.

You can also pair lacy sleeves with an otherwise plain top, like on the Starflower Wrap from Annelise Driscoll Gingrow. This intermediate pattern makes a wrap sweater with generous lacy sleeves and a double wrap belt. The pattern has nine sizes, from XS to 5XL, and is available for free from Hobbi.
