If you’re looking for something to knit for a dad in your life, check out this list of easy Father’s Day knitting patterns (which of course would be fine to knit for any other occasion).
I wanted to offer a mix of kinds of projects so you can make something that the guy in your life will like without being too stereotypical about what dads are supposed to like.
This basketweave vest from Red Heart/Yarnspirations is easy to knit and a classic style, available in five sizes, free pattern.
The Morton Street Scarf is a pretty Garter Stitch pattern from Lion Brand where the yarn really makes the project shine. You can use whatever multicolored yarn you have on hand or even make an odd ball using scraps to knit this project. Free pattern.
Dana Addy’s Campwear Hat for KnitPicks is a cute and easy-to-knit design for the whole family. Inspired by enamel camping mugs, you can knit one for dad and for all his favorite little campers.
Port is a classic “grandpa” cardigan designed by Amy Christoffers for Berroco. It comes in 7 sizes and has a zipper closure and patch pockets.
A pair of knit gloves is an awesome gift for anyone, and Julie Old Crow has a great, easy and super warm pattern for men’s gloves in her Etsy shop.
Knitting a tie is immensely better than buying dad a tie, and this free pattern from Universal Yarns by Rachel Brockman looks great and is easy to knit.
And because of course your dad is number one in your heart, maybe you should just knit him a washcloth with that sentiment? This free pattern is from Kris Knits.
Do you have a favorite project to knit for the guys in your life? I’d love to hear about it!
