Etsy Feature – PDF Pattern: Star Wars Baby Yoda Dishcloth/Washcloth

by

Baby Yoda has been going crazy over on the crochet blog. I didn’t want our knitters to miss out on all the fun, so here is a Baby Yoda dishcloth pattern.  This dishcloth is part of the Star Wars collection.

This listing is for the pattern to make the Baby Yoda dishcloth/washcloth.

This pattern includes easy to follow instructions (Ex. Row 1: K1, P3, K2, P4, etc.) as well as the grid/chart I created and used to write out the pattern.

Dishcloths/washcloths can be made using any 100% cotton medium/worsted weight yarn. this pattern has used Lily Sugar ‘N Cream and Walmart’s Peaches & Creme yarns for my dishcloths/washcloths. I find that with the regular size balls of yarn I can knit 1 dishcloth/washcloth and will have yarn left over to make some matching scrubbies.

So why are the baby Yoda patterns all disappearing so quickly?  The Copyright hounds are sniffing them out faster than crafters can download the free patterns and paid Yoda patterns. Etsy is right on top of copyright issues when it comes to Disney, Etsy have been deactivating sales listings after getting complaints directly from Disney over the usage of the words such as  “Star Wars,” “Mandalorian,” and “Yoda”. Which are all trademarked.

So how do you find a Baby Yoda Knitting pattern? Well, firstly you don’t use the words Baby Yoda Pattern.  Instead, artists and crafters are dodging the copyright bullet by calling their Crochet, knitting and sewing Baby Yoda patterns. Some of these names  Baby Child, Baby Alien pattern or  Child alien. Basically any variation that doesn’t say Yoda.

Should we be hating on Disney?  Disney has the legal right to enforce its intellectual property and prevent others from profiting off its work, just because they are the BIG guys doesn’t mean they don’t appreciate their items being copied, right?

But not all crafters believe in this. So if you are a non-believer and think we should STICK IT to the big guys then make sure if you see a pattern you want, you download, buy it or order it straight away so you don’t miss out.

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.
