Patterns, projects and techniques
This is gorgeous! Totally cool and how original? Not a fan of the reds and pinks, but in blues and greens it would work with just about any pair of jeans I own! Or how about a fuzzy, mohair-ish white with beads? That would take it from sporty to very dressy. I definitely like this pattern. It’s going in my “to-do” folder.
The free pattern for this mobius wrap is here: http://wollmeise.blogspot.com/2006/10/mbius-wrap-rezept.html and there are English instructions available on that same page.
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?
i can’t seem to find this patern at the website could you please help me?this is beautiful and i would love to make it
Does anyone know the weight and gauge of woolmeise yarn? Also the yardage for the mobius?
Go to http://www.yarndex.com, Nancy and look for the yarn there, it will give you yardage, weight….
Also, the pattern for the Mobius is on the page, but it’s kind of scattered around.
Have fun! It’s pretty isn’t it?
