On the third month of #knitmas Cygnet Yarns belatedly gave to me...free baby patterns
Sorry - I'm getting later at this every month! We have had loads of new deliveries here, so it's been pretty hectic!
I hope you're all cracking along nicely with your Christmas knits now. I've already got 3 gifts made for next year so I'm super pleased, as that's more than I've usually finished by mid-December!
This month is all about the babes, bout the babes, no dribble.
We have just had an amazing new line of baby yarn arrive - it's anti-pilling and anti-bacterial properties make this a super awesome and safe baby yarn!
I am working on a couple of exclusive patterns for you guys, but in the meantime, here are a few little freebies to get you going!
If you have friends or family expecting in Winter and you're not yet sure which flavour the baby will be, why not go for some bold bright shades, rather than the usual neutral colourways?
BOUNCING BABY ONESIE
This pattern is fab for so many reasons! 1: it goes from Newborn right up to Toddler sizes; 2: The buttoned opening makes potentially messy nappy changing situations much easier to deal with (there's nothing worse than having to peel a baby out of an entire garment!); and 3: It is made using our amazingly good value Baby Pato DK (RRP only 92p per ball!!!!!). What's not to love!?!?!?!? Download the pattern here.
BELLE AND BEAU CARDIGANS
These two beautifully simple patterns are made using our brand spanking new Kiddies Super Safe & Soft (the anti-pilling, anti-bacterial stuff I mentioned earlier), Dang this stuff is nice to knit with - just look at that stitch definition!! Download the patterns here.
fall for fairy isle
If you haven't tried our Fairy Isle DK yet, why not?? It's like crazy soft, has incredible stitch definition and is available in 10 beautiful self-patterning shades! We have a few free patterns available for this yarn, including the ridiculously lurvley Tilly Dress, as featured in Let's Get Crafting and Let's Knit magazines. Download the patterns here.
CRACKING CHRISTENING GOWN
If you're looking to make something a bit special, look no further. This delicate Christening gown is made using our ridiculously soft Kiddies Supersoft 4 ply yarn. It would make the most incredible heirloom gift for a loved one. Download the pattern here.
easy blankets
We have a few free blanket patterns and they're so simple to make - perfect for a bit of mindless crafting infront of the Gogglebox! Download the patterns here.
calling the crocheters
We haven't forgotten you lovely lot! Just look at this matinee coat in Kiddies 4 ply!? It's what dreams are made of! Download the patterns here.
