Here are 10 of my favorite Knit Collage patterns that are all about Intuitive Knitting. Not sure what I mean by Intuitive Knitting? Check out this blog post here and enjoy the inspiration below!
1. Sunbeam Stripe Cardi ~ Cheryl Kubat
The Sunbeam Stripe Cardi is a fantastic first sweater option! Let your creative spirit run wild—There is no wrong way to knit this one! The Cardi is created by working sideways from cuff to cuff. You’ll need one skein of our Spun Cloud for the cuff, neck, bottom and front ribbings. The rest is all the main color Spun Cloud, Wildflower Mini Kits and Mini Skein Sampler Kits. Have fun mixing colors and making it your own, we even mixed in some sequins and beads into the French Vanilla version shown here.
2. Shake Your Groove Thing Poncho ~ Cheryl Kubat
The Shake Your Groove Thing Poncho is all about getting your groove on in a design that makes you smile! It's a top down, super easy knit where you get to do you with color and yarn mixing. We also love the asymmetrical rows of tasseled trim adorning this piece. If you are a beginner knitter, this might just be the pattern for you. Or if you are looking for a fun and creative way to express yourself through knitting, this poncho has your name on it!
3. Gotta Be Hoodie Scarf ~ Christine M. Young
The Gotta Be Hoodie Scarf is all about you getting free, creative and just doing you! This design is worked lengthwise in seed stitch to create a pretty color and yarn mixing effect. The hood is shaped using short rows and a three needle bind off but it's all about those giant tassels that you add at the end! This is a wonderful project for ambitious beginners and experienced knitters alike that is sure to keep you warm and feeling inspired whenever there’s a chill in the air. So go ahead and do you!
4. Over the Top Shoulder Hug ~ Cheryl Kubat
Introducing the epitome of versatile elegance, our top-down raglan V-neck shrug is a timeless design with two distinct sleeve options, catering to your style preferences. The first option features gracefully cascading bell sleeves, adding a touch of whimsy to your ensemble. Alternatively, opt for the second sleeve style, a classic, straight, cuffed option that works in any wardrobe. This shrug’s top-down construction ensures a seamless and personalized fit, while the V-neck adds a flattering neckline. Whether the bell sleeve resonates with you or the timeless appeal of the straight cuff, this shrug provides the perfect canvas for expressing your individuality.
5. Hit the Slopes Balaclava ~ Laurel Gervitz
This pattern is a fashionable, modern twist on a vintage hooded design. It is ideal for cozying-up your head and neck from the coldest temps. This design is worked from the top down with a seamless construction and a garter edge. Get creative and whip up a multicolor, striped mix using our Mini Skein Sampler Kits (or stash!)
6. Harley Original Sweater ~ Julie Robinson
The Harley entrelac sweater is knit with FIVE of our unique, handspun yarns. It is worked bottom up, both in the round and flat. Have no fear, the entrelac stitch looks trickier than it actually is and if this technique has always scared you, this pattern is for you! Unsure about how to knit it...check out our kit that comes complete with an online class to guide you!
7. Fall Bouquet Bucket Hat ~ Christine M Young
Our trendy hat design is all about mixing yarns and colors in creative ways and that iconic bucket hat shape! Inspired by the 80’s and 90’s (think Blossom) the Fall Bouquet Bucket Hat is perfect for ambitious beginners and experienced crocheters alike.
8. The Sunwoven Tank ~ Amy Small
In the Sunwoven Tank, I again collaborated with Erin Barrett of Sunwoven Studios. Her weavings are what set this design into motion. This pattern combines our Spun Cloud yarn, our Wildflower yarn and one of our regular Mini Skein Sampler Kits. I love the open drop stitch back detail and the creativity you have here to play with color and yarn!
9. Plaid Party Cardi ~ Laurel Gervitz
The Plaid Party Cardi is all about a bohemian twist on a traditional plaid pattern. This beautiful design allows 2 or more yarns to be knit together in a chic yet classic plaid-like pattern. The plaid pattern is created by using a combination of reverse stockinette and slipped stitches that is simple and addictive to knit. Have fun with this one and watch how easy it is to create your own completely unique plaid fabric! This cardi is worked seamlessly from the bottom up with set-in sleeves and I-cord or ribbed front edges. A fun and texture rich knit resulting in a fabulous heirloom and timeless treasure for years to come.
10. Almost Famous Collar Pattern ~ Cheryl Kubat
From cold winter days to chilly festival evenings the Almost Famous Collar is a simple way to elevate any outfit! It’s a cinch to make and works up quickly with any chunky stash yarn you have. Wear it with your favorite denim jacket, over a tank dress, or even with a t-shirt and jeans for a hit of instant glam!
