We’ve gathered some of our favourite free knitting patterns for sweaters from around the web, so you can get started right away.
What is the best site for free knitting patterns?
Lots of websites and yarn companies offer patterns for free. Here are five to get you started.
The patterns are made with their yarn in mind, but that doesn’t mean you can’t chop and change yarns. Make sure you make a gauge swatch using the new yarn to match the pattern’s requirements. Adjust your needle size if necessary to achieve the correct gauge.
Additionally, if you are going to swap yarn or can’t find the yarn mentioned in the pattern, consider the fibre content of the original yarn and the substitution yarn, as well as the yardage and yarn weight.
But first, here are our top picks for free knitting pattern sweaters available online.
