3 Simple Knitting Projects
Here are 3 simple knitting projects that are perfect projects for beginner knitters!
Here is a list of 3 simple things to knit. These knitting projects are all really fast knitting projects, but you can also use these projects to try new techniques and enhance your knitting skills.
Simple Knitting Projects
- Washcloths
- Bookmarks
- Scrunchies
Washcloth
Washcloths can be knitted in so many ways. You can knit a washcloth that is very simple, or you can choose a pattern that challenges you a little bit. Whichever knitting pattern you choose, a washcloth can be knitted in a couple of hours.
Here is a link to some knitting patterns for many different washcloths: https://www.garnstudio.com/search.php?c=washcloths&lang=en
I knitted one of the knitting patterns, this washcloth you see above is very easy to knit, you only need to alternate knit stitch and purl stitch. I used a cotton yarn, which I think is a good yarn choice for washcloths.
As with any other knitting project, you can vary the way it looks by choosing different kinds of yarns and colors.
Bookmarks
Another easy knitting project is bookmarks. I saw this bookmark on Pinterest and thought I had to give it a try. Here is a link to the free knitting pattern: https://1001patterns.com/free-knitting-patterns-for-bookmarks/?utm_source=Pinterest&utm_medium=organic
I have not knitted a lot of lace before. And that actually makes me be a little hesitant to knit knitting projects with lace, it feels challenging to read the knitting charts when there are so many new symbols I don’t recognize.
Details are also not really my thing, I usually really keep thing very simple. But, I thought, as bookmarks are so fast and simple to knit, this could be a really good way to learn a little bit about knitting lace. And I do recommend trying this knitting pattern if you want to knit a fast lace knitting project.
But, of course, there are so many different ways to knit bookmarks, you don’t need to choose a bookmark with a lace pattern. You could make a bookmark with only the knitted stitch.
Scrunchies
Scrunchies are another simple knitting project to try. Here is a free knitting pattern on how to knit scrunchies: https://underbartskapad.com/how-to-knit-a-scrunchie-free-knitting-pattern/
These last couple of weeks, I have knitted scrunchies in many different colors. Knitting a scrunchie takes about one hour. It is such a fast knitting project. Our daughters have realized that they can wish for a scrunchie in a specific color and that it doesn’t take very much time to make them.
I think it is so fun that our children is starting to be interested in knitting and start making orders, I am very happy to knit for them.
So, those are three knitting projects that are really fast to knit. You can vary the difficulty level in so many ways, and trying new knitting techniques on small knitting projects is a really good idea.
We hope you will have a really nice time knitting and hope to see you again soon!
Many greetings from us
