Knit Love Link Party #5

Hello! Welcome to the January Knit Link Love Party #5, hosted by Marie Segares and I. Last month’s Link Party was full of bright colors, stripes, and lots of holiday cheer! It really did brighten up those cold days. We had a nice variety of finished items and works in progress. I really enjoy seeing your creation progress, so keep sharing your knitting, finished or not!

Be sure to share this link party with all your knitting friends so they can link up as well, and find new and fun knit projects around the web. Our link parties start on the first Thursday of the month, and end on the last Thursday of the month. Here are the 5 most clicked links from last month.

Jolly Waves Cowl – by Knitting and so on: Short rows and feather and fan stitch combine to make this visually striking free knitting pattern.

Gloves and Mittens Free Crochet Pattern Round Up

There’s something so cozy about a warm pair of gloves or mittens on a cold winter day. After all, does anyone really like cold fingers? I searched around and found some free crochet patterns for gloves and mittens of various sizes for you. Many of the patterns found here were part of the Crochet Mitten Drive Blog Hop.

Here are the names and links of each pattern.

Melody’s Mini CAL/KAL week 1

Hello my yarnie friends. I have some fun for you this month! I have a lot on my plate right now, but I wanted to have a Crochet Along and Knit Along. So, I had a chat with my friend Melody of Melody’s Makings who designs wonderful patterns in both knit and crochet.

She was quite happy to allow use to use one of her patterns for a month long mini CAL/KAL. I took a look through her free patterns with both a knit and crochet version and decided upon this one: (click the box below to go to the pattern)

Ear Flap Hat Round Up

I know I’ve said it many times, but I really don’t like when my ears are cold. Consequently, I’m quite fond of earflap hats. They’re so warm and cozy and super fun to wear as well! So this week’s round up features earflap hat patterns. Stay warm!!

Here are the names and links of each pattern, along with a little something that each designer has to say about them.

Pom Pom & Tassel free crochet pattern round up from Jessie At Home

Pom Poms & Tassels

Pom poms and tassels are really big right now! (big…lol…I’m funny)

Really though, oversized everything seems to be the thing of the moment, and that includes pom poms and tassels of all shapes and sizes, though bigger does seem to be better. It’s all part of the BOHO fashion movement, and I have to say, I love it! So, I’ve found some fun free patterns full of pom poms and tassels for you.

If you need a hand making some tassels, I LOVE this tool, or you can see this post on making pom poms with a piece of cardboard. I also have a tutorial on making tassels that you can find here.

Here are the names and links of each pattern, along with a little bit about each.

French crochet and knit pattern round up ~ from Jessie At Home

French Round Up

Last week, several of my friends and colleagues posted free crochet and knit patterns with French themes along with info on how you can help out in the wake of the Paris attacks. I have put together a round up of those patterns, along with a few other patterns that fit into the theme. At the end of the round up, you will find a list of ways you can help.

Here are the names and links of each pattern, along with a little something that each designer has to say about them.

Gradient Crochet Pattern Round Up

I’ve been seeing more and more gradient and ombre patterns popping up lately, and I love it! I’m quite fond of the way they can subtly move from one color into the next, so that you often can’t even notice where the changes happened! There are many ways to achieve this look, from a yarn that does it for you, to pacts of yarns made to work together as a gradient, to picking out the yarn colors on your own. I have searched around and found several examples of these fun color changes for this week’s round up!

Here are the names and links of each pattern, along with a little something that each designer has to say about them.
