Knitting for the Younger Set

Most of the children I knit for are tweens and teens now. I still look for inspiration on Ravelry, and find some of the cutest things! (You will need to sign up to peruse the patterns on Ravelry.)

This sock monkey sweater pattern is available for free on Petite Purls.

Another great source for free patterns is the Patons website. Plenty of classic sweater patterns, plus trendy poncho patterns. And they also have crochet patterns. You need to register with the site to download free patterns.
