Winter arrived a bit early for us. We crazily received a foot of snow the week before Halloween! I can’t remember the last time we had that much snow this early in the year. I’ve got mixed feelings about that tbh. But, I know the time is going to fly by fast and I love the whole Christmas season, so I think I’ll get through!
The winter season brings the best season for knitwear. And toddlers needn’t be left out! My little girls love their knits and it’s so fun to design pieces that are fairly quick to be on and off the needles.
The ice Princess sweater is suitable for beginner knitters and requires just the basic knitting skills, as well as picking up stitches.
I used We Are Knitters petite wool held together with the We Are Knitters bling bling yarn, which is a soft thin wool. It adds a much softer feel than the petite wool alone.
This piece requires three different sized needles. The 6.5mm, 8mm, and 12mm. You can use circular in place of the straights if you knit with them as if they are straights. You could also get away with not using the 6.5 if you don’t happen to have them.
The ice Princess pullover is also easily customizable for you to create in a variety of sizes. My toddler wears a 2t and that’s what the original size is for. I added a few notes to the pattern for a size up or size down. It’s as simple as just adding/deducting stitches and rows.
This sweater looks adorable paired with jeans for a classier look, or thrown on with a pair of leggings for everyday adventuring!
Happy September! I cannot believe summer has already come and gone. I love summer, but at the same time, I’m more than ready for all of the cozy vibes of fall! The pumpkin, the chilly mornings and evenings, all the pretty fall leaves. It’s going to be great!
To get your littles ready, I have launched the pattern for the mini lost roadtrip cardigan. The tiny cute version of my best selling lost roadtrip cardigan.
It’s got the little tears and distressed and oversized cozy feel. My babe loves it! She might have been a teeny bit scared of it the first time I tried to put it on her, but that went away quickly. Then she didn’t want to take it off!
You’ll only need two skeins of We Are Knitters “the wool” or similar super chunky weight yarn, sizes 15mm and 25mm straight knitting needles, and a darning needle for seaming. This pattern is made to be fairly easy, but if you’re super new to knitting, feel free to drop the “extras” and work in classic stockinette! This is also the perfect size for a little practice knitting!
