Check out the Amazing Bubbles on This Shawl

This is an older pattern but I just saw it shared on Instagram by Hedgehog Fibres and it looks awesome so I couldn’t help but share it.

Camino Bubbles by Kieran Foley uses a cool drop stitch mesh pattern that would be a perfect use for the wildest sock yarn in your stash.

There are two versions of the pattern, with larger and smaller bubbles. Click through to the Ravelry pattern page and you can see that it looks great in coordinating solids as well.

The pattern is available from Ravelry for $6.

I’ve shared a lot of Christmas stocking knitting patterns over the years (see posts 1, 2, 3 for example) but what if you want to knit a stocking for a non-human member of your family. If you’re looking for Christmas stocking knitting patterns for your cats or dogs, this is the post for you.

These large paw print stockings are perfect for either dogs or cats, so they’re great to knit if you have both. They are worked in the round using DK weight yarn, and the stocking measures about 17 inches/43 cm from the top to the heel. You can get the pattern from nicolaluke.

The K4 Project has a super cute Kitty Christmas stocking pattern, which is worked in worsted weight yarn. They also have a dog version, or you can buy both and get a discount if you have both dogs and cats to knit for. Both projects have two patterns, showing how to work the stockings flat or in the round.

Put your dog into a Christmas scene with this stocking pattern from ifanhourChild. It shows a dog in a dog house in the snow, and has room for the dog’s name at the top. It’s worked flat using worsted weight yarn and the pattern includes charts for many small and medium dog breeds (there’s a separate listing for bigger dogs) so you can stitch a dog that looks like yours.

Annie’s Woolens has both dog and cat stocking knitting patterns that are worked in worsted weight yarn in the round. You can change up the colors to suit your pet if you want, and they come with an alphabet chart for personalization. Or you can stick with holiday colors and buy a kit to make the dog or cat stocking.

Waiting for Santa Paws is a pattern from Kate Agner on Ravelry that would be cute for a dog or a cat. It looks like a leg with a paw print on the bottom part of the foot and more paw prints running around the top of the leg. This is a great option if you don’t want to mess with a heel turn because it doesn’t have a heel, because dogs and cats don’t have heels so why would their stockings?

It would be very helpful, if you would indicate what crafting skill is needed when you post a pattern– knit? crochet? something else?– instead of assuming everybody seeing it knits.

This is the knitting page, so while I don’t assume everyone knits, I assume people are interested in knitting. Even if you are seeing it on Facebook first, the link would show that it is on the knitting page.

I followed this from a general newsletter (Craft Gossip), and there was no indication that it was linked to a knitting page. I was trying to contact the newsletter editor– it could/should have been indicated there. (Also, for whatever reason, when the linked page pops up on my computer, the blog title is at the top of the page– have to scroll up to see that it is a knitting blog),.
