Knitting
for Premature Babies - Find The Premature Baby Knitting Pattern That Is
Right For You
I know very few people who don't enjoy
knitting for tiny brand new babies. There are occasions when even the
tiny baby patterns won't cut it for your current project needs. Because
of the growing number of preemies being born these days there has been
a correlation of growth in the number of premature baby knitting
patterns.
You can easily find pattern books at
www.barnesandnoble.com as well as www.amazon.com. These books will
offer patterns that you can easily adjust to larger sizes as your baby
grows. I tend to like these books in general because there are many
selections in general and I like getting more for my money whenever
possible.
In addition to pattern books which have a
premature baby knitting pattern or two, there are many patterns that
can be found at your local craft shop, yarn shop, and big chain stores
such as Michael's which can also be found at www.michaels.com and Joann
Fabrics www.joann.com.
If you can find anything that
suits your specific needs at one of these stores, you might want to
take a look at your local library. I love to look for knitting patterns
at the library. In addition to magazine sources the library will have
many books filled with knitting patterns. Best of all, the library
pattern books are free.
Beyond that there are many
sources online where you can find patterns and guides for a price and
for free. While I prefer free, there are some times when you find a
pattern that you absolutely have to have and one particular premature
baby knitting pattern has a price. If you really like the pattern, most
of them are really affordable and if you use it more than once, they
are well worth the investment.
One of my favorite
places to look for patterns online is
www.danettesangels.tripod.com/pknitp.html. You will find plenty of
patterns and links to other websites that have a premature baby
knitting pattern or two. Find a pattern that you really love and make a
preemie outfit and one for your baby to wear when he or she is older as
well. Most importantly, find a pattern that you will enjoy knitting. |
