PREMIE BABY BEANIES……. 8 PLY I had trouble finding beanies the sizes the hospital needed. Some premie patterns actually fitted up to 3 month olds. I tried a few patterns then decided on the following. I wrote my own. The hospital actually wanted them longer than most patterns I found. It made them more flexible to fit the tiny, elongated heads. If you want to help out and join me in using up some scraps to donate to the hospital please keep the colours gender specific. Doesn't have to be pink or blue but boy or girl. Think back to when we had our little bundle of joy. We wanted everyone to know if we had a boy or girl and all wrapped up in grey makes it a bit harder. Put a pink or blue stripe in it… They also prefer them started in rib instead of garter st. The band is longer so it can be folded up if a smaller beanie is required. I made these beanies in 3 sizes. Small, Medium & Large… Now we know yarn thicknesses vary and plys aren't always the same… keeping this in mind I used both thick and thin 8 ply. Thin 8 ply I used size 3.75 needles (9) and made all 3 sizes. Thick 8 ply I used 4mm (8) needles and only made the small and medium size. SMALL.. Cast on 34 sts Rib… K1, P1. to end… WORK 10 rows Work 16 rows st st. SHAPE CROWN 1. (K2, K2 tog) to end….. 26 sts 2. Purl 3. (K1, K2 tog) to end….. 18 sts 4. Purl 5. K2 you to end….. 9 sts. 6. Purl Cut yarn & thread through sts on needle. Pull tight, fasten off and sew up seam. MEDIUM..Cast on 42 sts Rib… K1, P1. to end… WORK 12 rows Work 24 rows st st. SHAPE CROWN 1. (K3, K2 tog) to end…. 34 sts 2. Purl 3. (K2, K2 tog) to end….. 26 sts 4. Purl 5. (K1, K2 tog) to end….. 18 sts 6. Purl 7. K2 you to end….. 9 sts. 8. Purl Cut yarn & thread through sts on needle. Pull tight, fasten off and sew up seam. LARGE..Cast on 50 sts Rib… K1, P1. to end… WORK 14 rows Work 34 rows st st. SHAPE CROWN 1. (K4, K2 tog) to end…. 42 sts 2. Purl 3. (K3, K2 tog) to end…. 34 sts 4. Purl 5. (K2, K2 tog) to end….. 26 sts 6. Purl 7. (K1, K2 tog) to end….. 18 sts 8. Purl 9. K2 you to end….. 9 sts. 10. Purl Cut yarn & thread through sts on needle. Pull tight, fasten off and sew up seam. Once you have made a couple please feel free to add some patterns in. Garter st stripes, st st stripes, Lacey patterns, hole patterns even cables if you choose. Have fun. As you can see they are tiny. The small size fits over a small wine glass. Tiny premie beanies I am adding this to a new page called PREM BABY makes to have all my little makes listed in one place.

5 Hour Baby Sweater Cardigan Free Knitting Pattern (0-6 M)
Don't you just love free patterns! Today I am giving you the link to my free baby top-knot knitting pattern. Update: Pattern now has instructions for both knitting in the round and knitting flat. It is knit in the round and is very, very simple! I wrote it as a starter pattern for people learning to knit in the round. It uses double knit or light worsted weight yarn and has instructions for 5 sizes ranging from preemie to 2 years. I know many, many knitters in the UK hate knitting in the round (but they dislike sewing up seams too!!!) whereas my US friends are much more comfortable with it . I have a little theory about this! If you learned to crochet first and then to knit, you are comfortable knitting in the round - if you didn't learn to crochet, or only learned much later, you are a two needles only sort of person - and as crochet is so much more popular in the US, and only just starting to gain in popularity here, there are more "in the rounders" in the States. So there you have it - my theory - but let's get back to point of the post!! The free pattern can be downloaded here. It is also in the Knitting Patterns tab at the top of the page, so you can get those knitting needles out and get knitting today!

It's a well known fact that knitting for babies is one of the most satisfying ways of utilising the time and talent of any knitter. But crafting tiny, beautiful items for premature babies whether you know them or for charitable donations to hospitals, has to be the most worthwhile and rewarding reason for picking up your needles. A friend of one of the MillaMia team has just been blessed with her son rather earlier than expected. Arriving small and early meant that he was in need of some tiny clothes pretty quickly, and who better to turn to than knitters when some speedy crafting is required? These cute hats are a free pattern available on Ravelry - called 'Preemie Hats For Charity' by Carissa Browning. There are 5 designs taking small amounts of sportweight yarn so perfect for using up those odds and ends of MillaMia Naturally Soft Merino. I had some putty grey, storm and teal left over from various projects suitable for a new baby boy, and decided on knitting a couple of striped and 2 ribbed hats to make it interesting for me, but also to ensure that with a choice of fit, at least 2 of them would be ok. Each hat took around 2 hours to complete, knitted in the round using the magic loop technique. The combination of simple, gratifying knitting, over very few stitches destined for someone so worthy honestly made these little hats one of the most pleasing knitting experiences ever. Sally, one of our incredibly talented test knitters also managed to whip up some tiny cardigans in next to no time. Knitted in Naturally Soft Merino in putty grey, forget-me-not and storm the main body took around 60g with a small amount needed to for the contrast edgings. The pattern is the Garter Stitch Cardigan by Debbie Bliss from her book Design It, Knit It: Babies. While looking for suitable patterns to use, I came across a wealth of free patterns designed with knitting for charity in mind. There are some wonderful charities that provide free patterns, and accept all manner of knitted items for donation to hospitals across the world. Bliss and Preemies UK are just 2 organisations that work immensely hard in fundraising and providing the huge quantities of knitted items needed. Full details of knitting for or donating to these incredible charities are on their websites. It prompted some thinking on my part. About the use of my time and talent, and about making something truly worthwhile but that will always be gratefully received. With a hat taking the gift of 2 hours and a scrap of yarn, I really have no excuse. (posted by Max)
