Unique Knit and Crochet Ideas

3/18/2014

0 Comments

 
A couple days ago, I found out that one of my friends knits. In talking to her about it, she said she had just learned, but didn't think you could knit much beyond hats, scarves and blankets. I honestly didn't answer right away because my mind was buzzing with so many ideas of things you could make with your needles. Finally, I said, "When you knit you are making a fabric, so basically anything you could make with fabric you could knit". Of course, this is true for crochet, too. A wonderful thing these days is that you can find many knit and crochet doilies and tablecloths at thrift stores, so even if you don't have the skill, you can still partake in the fun by upcycling a secondhand find.

Anyway, as I was deciding what to post about today, I thought I would share some ideas, many of which contain patterns/tutorials for you to re create the inspiration. Click on the picture to go to the link. Enjoy!
A-Frame Tent with Crochet Beadspread
Do you remember the A-Frame Play Tent I posted in January? This is the same concept, just use a crocheted bedspread instead of a sheet.
Knit Swatch Bracelet
You will find a tutorial at the link for these bangles.
Crochet Bicycle Guard
Here is a fun way to personalize your bike. This item is for purchase.
Knit Swatch Wall Hangings
The link here provides a basic guideline. I have also seen this done by stretching the swatch over a canvas and attaching it to the back.
Crochet Shoes
You will find a tutorial for this, however, the website is in Spanish, but google translate helps.
Knit Floor Pouf
These little ottomans are hand knitted by Christien Meindertsma.
Crochet Stool Cover
A wonderful tutorial is provided at the link.
Crochet Frames
A guideline is provided at this link for how to make these little frames.
Crochet Pendant Lampshades
This picture is the inspiration for the tutorial found at this link. If you don't know how to crochet, buy up some doilies and connect them for a similar effect.
Crochet Chair Cover
This lovely chair cover was created with a glue gun and a tablecloth. There is no tutorial, but I am sure it wouldn't be hard to figure out.
