Lolo Poncho. Photo © Noura Sabbagh
Lolo Poncho by Noura Sabbagh is a charming free hooded baby poncho knitting pattern featuring cable braids, seed stitch details and a cozy buttoned neckline.
Designed for little ones approximately 8–18 months, this sweet poncho is worked from the top down in DK-weight yarn. A pointed hood finished with a tassel and decorative cables along the sides give the design its distinctive storybook look.
Lolo Poncho combines the relaxed shape of a knitted poncho with several details normally associated with more structured children's garments.
The hood provides extra warmth around the head and neck, while a short buttoned opening at the front makes the poncho easier to put on and take off.
A tassel at the top of the hood adds a playful finishing touch that works especially well with the vintage-inspired shape of the design.
Although much of the poncho uses simple stockinette stitch, Noura Sabbagh adds texture with seed stitch and cable braids.
The cable details run along both sides of the poncho, providing a strong decorative feature without covering the entire garment in cables.
This combination allows the smooth stockinette sections, textured seed stitch and raised cable braids to complement one another.
The free pattern is written for one baby/toddler size: approximately 8–18 months.
Because children's proportions can vary considerably at the same age, check the designer's pattern information and your gauge before beginning rather than choosing the project based only on age.
The original Lolo Poncho uses Nako Elit Baby, a DK-weight acrylic yarn.
The designer specifies approximately 100 g of lightweight #3 acrylic yarn. The pattern listing gives an estimated yardage of around 246–273 yards (225–250 m).
If you substitute another yarn, choose a suitable DK-weight option and make sure you can achieve the required gauge.
For a garment intended for a young child, softness and practical care are also useful considerations when selecting yarn.
Lolo Poncho calls for 3.5 mm (US 4) circular needles, approximately 80 cm or longer, or the needle size needed to achieve the designer's gauge.
The specified gauge is: 20 stitches and 32 rows = 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch.
Making a gauge swatch is particularly useful for a children's garment because a difference of only a few stitches can noticeably change the finished dimensions.
Lolo Poncho is constructed from the top down and is primarily worked in the round as one piece.
This construction allows the poncho to grow outward and downward from the neckline while incorporating the decorative sections into the garment.
It also reduces the amount of traditional garment seaming compared with a poncho made from several large separate panels.
Three buttons at the upper front add both decoration and function. They create a short opening near the neckline, making the hooded poncho easier to dress over a baby's head.
Choosing contrasting buttons can make this feature stand out, while buttons close to the yarn color create a more understated finish.
This project combines several knitting techniques, including:
For that reason, Lolo Poncho is more interesting as a skill-building project than a completely basic first knitting project.
Lolo Poncho has a distinctive look without requiring an elaborate all-over stitch pattern. The hood, cable braids, seed stitch, buttons and tassel provide plenty of visual interest while leaving large areas of simpler knitting.
The poncho shape also makes it a fun alternative to knitting another conventional baby cardigan or pullover.
It could make a lovely handmade gift for a baby or toddler, especially for cooler autumn and winter days.
Noura Sabbagh named the pattern after her daughter. It was also her first written knitting pattern.
The pattern is available in both English and Arabic, which makes it especially useful to knitters looking for an Arabic-language version of a baby garment pattern.
The complete Lolo Poncho by Noura Sabbagh is currently available as a free downloadable knitting pattern from the designer's Ravelry store.

Available in four baby and toddler sizes, this cardigan is worked with medium-weight yarn and straightforward knitting techniques, making it an approachable project for knitters ready to try a small garment.
Designer: Sarah Hoadley
Publisher: Lion Brand Yarn
Pattern: Garter Ridge Baby Cardigan
Craft: Knitting
Category: Baby Cardigan / Sweater
Skill Level: Easy (Beginner+)
Yarn Weight: Medium / Worsted (#4)
Yardage: Approximately 336–504 yards (307–461 m)
Needles: US 8 (5 mm)
Gauge: 17 sts and 25 rows = 4 in in stockinette stitch
Sizes: 0–6 months, 6–12 months, 12–18 months, 2–3 years
Pattern Availability: Free
This baby cardigan combines a traditional button-front shape with simple garter-ridge texture. The result is a practical little sweater with enough stitch detail to keep the knitting interesting without making the project overly complicated.
Lion Brand rates the pattern as Level 2 – Easy (Beginner+), making it a useful first cardigan project for knitters who already know the basic knit and purl stitches.
The pattern includes four sizes, from newborn and baby sizes through approximately age three.
0–6 months: 21 in (53.5 cm) finished chest
6–12 months: 22 in (56 cm) finished chest
12–18 months: 24 in (61 cm) finished chest
2–3 years: 27.5 in (70 cm) finished chest
Finished lengths are approximately 9.5, 10, 12 and 14 inches respectively. Check the complete Lion Brand sizing information before selecting the size to knit.
The cardigan is designed for Medium / Worsted (#4) yarn. The original pattern was published with Lion Brand yarns including Cotton-Ease and Lion Cashmere Blend.
Depending on the selected size, the project uses approximately 336–504 yards (307–461 m) of yarn.
The recommended needle size is US 8 (5 mm). Lion Brand lists a gauge of 17 stitches and 25 rows = 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch.
Small garments are a useful way to practice sweater construction without committing to the yarn and knitting time required for an adult-size sweater. The Garter Ridge Baby Cardigan also uses a familiar worsted-weight gauge, which makes yarn substitution easier when an appropriate replacement yarn is selected.
The subtle garter-ridge texture gives the finished cardigan a handmade look while keeping the overall design simple and timeless.
The Garter Ridge Baby Cardigan was designed by Sarah Hoadley and published by Lion Brand Yarn.

This free Dove knitting pattern from Knitting by Post creates a small knitted bird that makes a lovely symbol of peace and hope. It is a compact project worked with simple knitting techniques and only requires a small amount of yarn.
The finished dove measures approximately 10 cm from beak to tail and is made using white double-knitting yarn, straight needles and a small amount of toy stuffing.
Designer / Publisher: Knitting by Post Ltd
Craft: Knitting
Category: Knitted Bird / Soft Toy
Yarn Weight: DK / Double Knitting
Yarn: Oddments of white DK yarn
Needles: 3 mm straight needles
Other Materials: Small amount of toy stuffing
Finished Size: Approximately 10 cm from beak to tail
Construction: Worked flat and seamed
Language: English
Availability: Free pattern
This little knitted dove has a simple, recognizable shape with a rounded body, pointed beak and two separate wings. The original designer describes it as a symbol of hope, making it suitable for thoughtful gifts, decorations and charity knitting projects.
Because the project only uses small amounts of yarn, it can also be a useful way to use leftover DK yarn from other knitting projects.
The original pattern uses oddments of white double-knitting yarn. You will also need a small amount of toy stuffing and 3 mm single-pointed needles.
White gives the bird its traditional dove appearance, but the simple construction also makes it easy to experiment with other yarn colors for decorative knitted birds.
The finished dove is approximately 10 cm long from the beak to the end of the tail.
Its small size makes it suitable for hanging decorations, table displays, keepsakes or small handmade gifts.
The dove is knitted using straight needles rather than being worked entirely in the round. The body and head form the main piece, while two wings are knitted separately and attached during finishing.
The pattern uses basic knit and purl stitches together with increases and decreases for shaping. The knitted pieces are then seamed and lightly stuffed to create the finished three-dimensional bird.
Yes. The original Dove Knitting Pattern by Knitting by Post is currently available free on the designer's official website.

The Shark Socks by Fiona Goble are a wonderfully playful pair of knitted socks designed to look like hungry sharks swallowing your feet. Complete with toothy mouths, fins and button eyes, they turn an ordinary pair of warm socks into a fun character knitting project.
The basic socks are straightforward to knit, but the decorative shark details require some additional finishing skills. The designer recommends the project for intermediate knitters rather than complete beginners.
Designer: Fiona Goble
Craft: Knitting
Category: Mid-Calf Socks
Skill Level: Intermediate
Yarn Weight: Worsted
Suggested Yarn: Cascade 220
Yardage: 220–440 yd (201–402 m)
Needles: US 6 (4 mm)
Crochet Hook: 4 mm (G)
Gauge: 22 sts × 28 rows = 4 in in stockinette
Sizes: S / M
Construction: Top-down, worked in the round
Instructions: Written pattern
Language: English
Availability: Free pattern
These knitted shark socks combine a traditional sock construction with whimsical animal details. The shark's mouth opens around the wearer's foot, while white knitted teeth, fins and dark button eyes complete the character.
The result is a pair of novelty socks that can make a memorable handmade gift for anyone who enjoys sharks, sea creatures or unusual knitted accessories.
The original pattern recommends Cascade 220, a worsted-weight wool yarn. The listed requirement is approximately 220–440 yards (201–402 meters), depending on size.
The designer suggests grey Cascade 220 for the main shark color. You will also need a small amount of white DK or light worsted-weight yarn for the teeth.
A smooth yarn with good stitch definition is particularly useful for this project because it helps the shark shaping and decorative details remain clearly visible.
The pattern uses 4 mm (US 6) knitting needles, including a set of four 4 mm double-pointed needles for working sections in the round.
You will also need a 4 mm (G) crochet hook or a similar size for the crocheted edging.
The stated gauge is 22 stitches × 28 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch. Checking your gauge is particularly important for socks because it affects both fit and finished size.
The original Shark Socks pattern includes Small and Medium sizing.
Yarn requirements vary with size, so check the original instructions before purchasing yarn for your pair.
The socks are constructed from the cuff down and include traditional sock techniques such as a heel flap and gusset. Parts of the project are worked in the round.
What makes this design unusual is the finishing. In addition to knitting the socks themselves, you will need to work a crocheted edging and create the knitted trim for the shark's mouth and teeth.
For this reason, Fiona Goble describes the socks as achievable for intermediate knitters but not ideal as a first-ever knitting project.
In addition to yarn, knitting needles and a crochet hook, the original pattern calls for a stitch holder, stitch marker, yarn sewing needle and large-eyed embroidery needle.
Four small 10 mm shiny black shank buttons are used for the sharks' eyes.
Yes. Shark Socks by Fiona Goble is currently listed as a free knitting pattern. The authorized Ravelry listing directs knitters to the free pattern hosted by Cut Out + Keep.

The Woodland Loafers by Claire Slade are cozy knitted slippers designed to fit securely around the foot while remaining comfortable and quick to knit.
Worked with chunky or bulky-weight yarn, the slippers include shaping for the heel, toe and sole. They begin flat and are then joined to work in the round, creating a one-piece construction with no finishing seams.
Designer: Claire Slade
Pattern: Woodland Loafers
Craft: Knitting
Category: Slippers
Yarn Weight: Bulky / Chunky
Suggested Yarn: Malabrigo Yarn Chunky
Needles: US 8 (5 mm)
Gauge: 16 sts and 24 rows = 4 in stockinette
Sizes: S, M, L, XL, XXL
Construction: Worked flat, then in the round
Finishing: One-piece and seamless
Pattern Language: English
Woodland Loafers are designed as warm, close-fitting knitted slippers. The pattern uses dedicated heel, toe and sole shaping to help the slippers conform to the foot and stay in place while being worn.
One of the most appealing features of the construction is that the slippers require no sewing together at the end. The knitting begins flat before transitioning to circular knitting, producing the slipper as a single seamless piece.
The original pattern calls for chunky or bulky-weight yarn and uses US 8 (5 mm) needles.
The designer suggests Malabrigo Yarn Chunky. Depending on the size selected, the pattern requires approximately 95–180 yards (87–165 m) of bulky yarn.
You will also need two stitch markers. The pattern calls for short circular needles and double-pointed needles for the sections worked in the round.
The pattern includes five sizes from S through XXL, covering a broad range of adult shoe sizes.
US Women's: approximately 5.5–10.5
US Men's: approximately 6.5–13.5
UK: approximately 4–13
EU: approximately 37–48
Because sizing differs between men's and women's shoe systems, check the designer's complete size chart before choosing which size to knit.
Woodland Loafers are first worked flat and then joined to continue knitting in the round. The pattern incorporates short-row shaping as well as shaping for the heel, toe and sole.
The original instructions are written rather than charted. There are no charts included in the pattern.
Woodland Loafers was designed by Claire Slade and published through Verily Knits. Amazing Knitting does not reproduce the designer's knitting instructions.
