Fun Knits for Thanksgiving

I’m not much of a Thanksgiving decorator, but every time I look at the adorable fall-themed knitting patterns out there I wonder why that is. There are so many cute little turkeys, acorns, leaves and other great things for the table that it makes me want to pull out some orange and brown yarn and get stitching.

Last year I brought you a roundup of lots of great Thanksgiving knitting patterns, but I wanted to add a few new ones to the list if you’re looking for something to knit over the next couple of weeks.

This Pilgrim Bonnet is a great choice if you’re looking for a historically appropriate outfit for Thanksgiving or just need to yarnbomb a statue, as the original version from the tangle blog was made for.

Sassy Skein’s Thanksgiving Tea Towel could be for any holiday — or any day — depending on what color you made it. Her’s is a lovely orange cotton yarn with a great nubby stitch pattern perfect for drying the post-Thanksgiving meal dishes.

Elaine from Down Cloverlaine has a cute turkey bib for a little one that could easily be worked as a washcloth, just don’t do the shaping at the top.

Also make sure you check out the Thanksgiving knitting patterns roundup from Stitch and Unwind (love the little pumpkin napkin rings!) for some more great ideas.

Do you knit for Thanksgiving? I’d love to hear what you’ve made in the past or what you’re working on this year.
