More Easter Basket Knitting Patterns

I was a little greedy last week, stealing the spotlight with my adorable knit Easter basket pattern, so I thought I’d even the score a bit this week by sharing some more projects for super cute knit baskets for Easter and beyond.

This pretty, easy Easter basket from Kaity Fraker is a free Ravelry download that includes the pattern for the lovely Easter eggs, too (they’re worked in a Fair Isle print yarn so they’re way easier than they look).

The basketweave patterned Easter basket from Aussie Jean is available in oblong and round. I’ve seen the oblong version in person because my mom knit one for my daughter, and it’s really cute.

If you’re a fan of whimsy, you’ll want to check out the adorable knit and felted chicken basket from DROPS design. It’s almost too cute to believe.

Do you put your Easter eggs in a knit basket? I’d love to hear about it.

Many times when I write these posts I will say something like “you can use any yarn you want” or “this would be a great stash-busting project.” That’s just how my mind works. And my stash, too, since I probably have sweater quantity of two or three yarns at most, but tons of singles and odd balls and leftovers.

Blankets are generally a really good way to use up those bits, but in this case, I think you’re going to want to plan it out a bit better.

Looking at photos of the Color Study Blanket from Purl Soho, it looks like it’s made with two yarns held together, and that block in the center is worked with one of each color from the adjoining sides to make a mixed up color.

But that’s not actually how it’s done. This is three separate colors (four, really, with the neutrals in the corners) chosen form a yarn with an expansive palette so they play off each other. The project calls for a worsted weight superwash wool, which is a great choice for a blanket that’s both warm and washable.

This pattern was originally designed by Laura Ferguson and was updated by Hiromi Glover. It is worked in one piece in garter stitch intarsia, which is a great way to learn the intarsia technique if you don’t already know it. It comes in crib or throw sizes.

Despite the introduction to this post, I am going to go ahead and say that, yes, of course you could do this blanket with scraps or odd balls or even just choose five colors that don’t blend together so easily. But I really do love the look of the color play, and I think it would be worth your time to find colors that play well together to get a similar effect.

This pattern is available for free from Purl Soho.
