Hobbie's Knitting Pattern Collection

Knitting patterns for vests, school sweaters, cardigans and team sweaters too!

The pattern collection has grown to include knitting instructions for everyone from the littlest wizards to children and adults, up to plus sizes.

Our first pattern was for a Wizard School uniform vest - for all wizards who live in warmer climates.

It's been popular with those who want to knit up a quick holiday present or a costume prop for Halloween.

How about a cardigan vest? It's one of our knitting pattern.

Vests are a nice alternative to the long sleeved wizard school sweater when you consider that most cons and wizarding events take place during summer months when long sleeves are not really needed.

Our "collection" includes several vest and sweater sizes as well as the a pattern for both the "PoA" and "OOTP" style cardigan.

Buttoned raglan pullover - Weasley style with appliqued initial letterDon't forget the knitting patterns for children.

We will soon be adding a pattern for the buttoned raglan pullover. This child sized raglan is knit with Patons© Classic Merino wool with an ultra-suede appliqué letter.

All patterns are available in standard, "Medium" sizes but we'll be happy to draft one in a specific size.

We designed the knitting patterns to be "generic" in nature...knit with economical yarns available at retail stores such as Joann and easily customized by knitters of all skill levels but easy enough for beginners with knowledge of basic knitting techniques.

We also assume that this basic knitting knowledge includes the ability to cast on, cast off, increase and decrease stitches, make minor adjustments [such as shortening/lengthening the sweater body and sleeves] to the pattern to suit your "fit" preference and to change colors.

    The school uniform knits are basically stocking stitch and 1 by 1 ribbing. The stripe pattern is nothing more than a change in yarn colors. It's worth a visit to explore Knit & Crochet @ Jo-Ann.com!

    By the way...be sure to check their free knitting patterns. You will find the link in the "Also from Joann.com" category - half way down the navigation bar on that page.
