Space Chick Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Has anyone got any easy... and I mean EASY knitting patterns for a jumper or cardigan that they can post or link to for free? I am very very much a beginner knitter, so nothing that needs any complex techniques or stitch holders or circular needles, as that is beyond my skills right now!! thanks Crafty Omleteers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Have you joined Ravelry yet? If not, do it now! You can search by type of pattern and ease, so first choose knitting or crochet, then search by pattern type, ie jumpers, then narrow it down again to search only patterns suitable for beginners, and again for free or chargeable patterns.

Couperwife Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 this is easy! It's using american yarn, but it's easily converted We could do a knit along with you Cathy X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplemaniacs Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 A knit along sounds fun can I join too, please Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 I'm just attempting a jumper from my Chicks with Sticks book, but once I'm finished maybe we can do a knit along on a Cardy? Chrissie it would be fabulous if you joined the knit along I'm hoping to have finished my jumper by the end of the weekend (she says in hope ) so I could start a new knit along thread with the pattern What do you think? How do you propose we do the knit along Cathy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couperwife Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Ooooh, cardy, I need it to be chunky, very chunky, and easy, or I won't finish it, lol I've never done a knit along before, but I think that everyone gets the pattern, and the yarn, of their colour choice, then we all start on the same day (give or a take a little) and we post pictures of our progress. Does that sound right to everyone We could do a scarf, or a dishcloth to try it out... Cathy X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 Sounds ideal Cathy, but I really want to knit a cardy Like the idea of progress pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kazzy73 Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 I would love to join a knit along, would be great if we got a free pattern offline so everyone could get it (also im stingy) more a crocheter myself so this would make me move my butt.

Space Chick Posted March 27, 2012 Author Share Posted March 27, 2012 I really like the look of this Cardy http://www.coatscrafts.co.uk/NR/rdonlyres/E913931B-00E9-48CD-8346-AB9CE8C13B41/36917/Eco_Wool_Chunky_Cardigan.pdf Nice free pattern, with optional collar depending on skill level. I may follow the style but vary the stitch Whatcha reckon, shall I start the thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
