Win a Copy of Berroco’s New Baby Book

by

comfort knitting babies and toddlersComfort Knitting and Crochet: Babies and Toddlers has been sitting on my bedside table for a few weeks now, waiting to be looked at (it could be I’m a little over baby knitting right now because I’m finishing up my book and just don’t want to judge my book against it and vice versa). The little bit I’ve flipped through it it looks really cute.

The projects come from Norah Gaughan and the Berroco Design Team and use Berroco’s Comfort and Vintage lines, which are great choices for kids because they’re washable, soft and come in a good variety of colors.

Berroco is giving 25 lucky readers the chance to win a copy of the book. All you have to do is fill out this form, including your e-mail and shipping addresses, by the end of the day Thursday, also known as Oct. 11. Participants must be from the United States or Canada to win. And I’ll be sure to let you know what I think of the book just as soon as I give it a closer look.

Specific to knitters, you can join our Knitting Patterns Only group to get, well, knitting patterns, ask questions and gain inspiration for what to knit next.

  2. This sounds like it would be a good book to have. I have one grandchild and love to knit her all sorts of things.

Knits to Make for Your Labubu

Maybe it’s not your Labubu, but if you’ve ever looked at one of those creepy cute dolls and thought “what that thing needs is a sweater,” you’ve come to the right place. These Labubu knitting patterns are super cute and easy to make whatever your skill level. 

If you want to keep it super basic, there’s this Labubu sweater from flourish AND fiber. It uses sock yarn and is worked from the top down in the round with a bit of ribbing on the edges but otherwise in stockinette stitch. It says it’s meant to fit all current regular Labubu plush pendants. 

Another cute pendant project is the Bubu Cardi by Ginko B. This free Ravelry download uses fingering weight yarn and only uses about 35 yards of yarn, so it’s a perfect scrap knitting project. 

Give your Labubu some springtime flair with this sweet little dress pattern by About Yarn. It’s for a 6.5 inch/17 cm doll and is worked in the round using DK weight yarn. 

Or get them ready for cooler weather with this cute beanie from Stephanie Connolly. Available as a free Ravelry download, this pattern uses DK weight yarn and has a hole in the top for Labubu’s ears and pendant to pull through. 

If you want a more whimsical look, try the Labubu headdress by Shino Craft. This one uses sport weight yarn and makes your critter look like a flower. You can buy it on Ravelry.

Add a touch of colorwork with this adorable heart sweat for a Labubu. This pattern is from kelmadeSG and uses fingering or DK weight yarn (maybe depending on what size doll you have?) and is worked flat in pieces. 

Shirley Durmaz made this cute hoodie for a Labubu with two strands of fingering weight yarn (or you could use a DK weight). It’s available on Ravelry.

If your Labubu fan is also a Taylor Swift fan, you’ll want to knit the free Labubu V Neck Cardigan, inspired by Taylor’s Folklore sweater. It uses fingering weight yarn and you can find it on Ravelry.
