You need something to do in your spare time but you are not sure what to do. Do you flit from one hobby to another thinking that you are broadening your horisons but don’t seem to find a good fit?
Lots of people feel like this and lots turn to knitting as a hobby and a pastime. So why knit? What is the appeal of knitting? Is it still an old ladies hobby?
It is true that knitting has been around for hundreds of years. You only have to visit your local charity shop to find a great big pile of knitting patterns that were created in the 1960s or 1970s. All out of date and made using yarn you have never heard of.
The truth is though that knitting has seen a resurgance in popularity over the past 10-15 years. There are huge numbers of designers making contemporary designs for everyone to enjoy. Yes, you might need the internet to get hold of these designs but they are out there and lots of them are fantastic.
When I started designing knitted toys in 2010 in a serious way, there were just two mainstream toy makers that had even scratched the surface of what is possible. They were Jean Greenhowe – who has since retired and Alan Dart
All other toy designs that I had come across were from people with a sewing background and made flat with lots of seams and lots of sewing. I soon realised that this was not how to design toys and make it fun.
Fast forward 10 years and the Knitting by Post designs are contemporary, modern and fun to make. I realise that some people like knitting with a physical pattern so I publish leaflets or you can download and use an electronic device to keep and read your patterns.
I publish new knitting patterns every week. Do you want to know what we are up to? Here is our most recent knitted design…
Yummy Tummy Giraffe Knitting Pattern
£4.49 DownloadIf you are putting some thought into taking up knitting as a hobby, there are lots of reasons to begin.
All you need is any old ball of wool, some knitting needles and either someone to give you an hour of their time to show you the basics or a fish about on Youtube for a good video. Everything you need to start will be for sale on your high street. No need for expensive equipment or huge amounts of training. Get the basics and make a start.
There are many health benefits, I find that I am more relaxed during and after an hour knitting. It lowers your blood pressure, the stress melts away and it keeps the mind active too.
It is a portable hobby, so you can take your needles out if you have a day out, or you have a long journey. It is also a good hobby if you are recouperating or ill too, you don’t need to be active and up on your feet to knit.
Do you have a short attention span? Or do you prefer your projects to take weeks to months? Either way, it doesn’t matter. Most toys that I design are short projects that you can make in a weekend or you could knit a larger toy that has lots of components and can take weeks. Pick the project that suits your attention span.
One of the shortest and easiest knitting patterns
Folded Doggy Knitting Pattern
£4.49 DownloadOne of the longest and large knits

Cast off in pattern
The bow pieces will want to curl upon itself when laid flat. It will keep it’s shape when folded and stitched.
For the large and small bow piece, place the cast on and cast off edges together and stitch. Fold so the seam is at the centre back and tease the edges of the bow into shape if it is still curled.
Place smaller bow on top of the larger and place the ribbon piece at the back. Take a thread and wrap it round the centre of all the bow pieces. Add any additional accessories such as hair bobbles or hair clips can be added.

With a break from the traditional Christmas red and greens, this year we created a Santa soft toy knitting pattern to rival the rest. Santa on Boxing Day is how you might imagine him after the busiest night of the year delivering lots of gifts for the children.
He has a comfy cardi, trousers and hat that are all made separately. He can be dressed and undressed.
Standing at 50cm tall he is a larger than life toy so if you are planning to make him, you will need lots of toy stuffing.
It took the designer three weeks to create and knit the first one and he became a real labour of love.
“I knew he would be big but he just kept getting bigger, he has a big personality to go with it too. He has really big features so the only real challenging details were adding the eyes.” Says Vicky.
“I loved him so much that I decided to adopt him and keep him to show off at Christmas after he was made. I just couldn’t bear to put him away”
He is made in the usual Knitting by Post style with an easy to read pattern and pictures along the way.
If you like a longer knit and big toys then he is for you. He is large enough to get your needles going for a long knitting session.
The yarn used to make the model was double knitting acrylic (Light Worsted, 8ply, No.3, Approx 300m/100g)
“Our choice of acrylic yarn is something that we think about a lot. There are advantages and disadvantages to it. We use it because it is affordable and readily available. The colours are vibrant and the yarn thickness is consistent”
Even though he is made so big, the pattern uses 3mm single pointed knitting needles.
“3mm needles with double knitting yarn can seem odd if you are used to making garments” says Vicky. “The reason that we do this is to make sure when you have finished knitting and begin to stuff him that the toy stuffing doesn’t show through.” she continued.
The printed version is an A5 booklet and he is available by post worldwide. The download is a PDF document and is available to download immediately.
Here is Santa on Boxing Day. With a break from the traditional red, he is relaxing after all those Christmas deliveries.

Knitting is one of the oldest and most adopted and satisfying hobbies. You will find knitters in every part of the world regardless of the culture, language or fashion.
However, knitting is not limited to creating wooly pullies. Knitters who use their skills to create toys and decorative items find it more fun and rewarding. This is because toys are shorter projects and are super cute when they are finished.
It is easy to select knitting patterns for toys because there is a huge variety available online. There are lots of up and coming independent designers such as us here at Knitting by Post to choose from.
We, the avid and passionate knitters, want to create our loved ones something unique and an original one off. Toys are small and compact and can be made personal with your choice of colours and finish.
Kids and grandkids love it when we give them a toy instead of a sweater or a hat. Knitting garments are not necessarily something you want to have on your lap knitting in the summer because they are large and can keep a knitter too warm.
Why not fill up the gap and the urge to keep knitting during the summer by knitting some hand made toys to keep our loved ones engaged in all year round.
Here are some reasons that make knitting toys fun, rewarding and satisfying:
If you are a mum or a grandmother or even a knitting superstar for the kids of your friends and acquaintances; the children literally love it when they get a knitted toy.
There are hundreds of different toy patterns available online and all you need is some yarn, a bag of stuffing, a good pattern and those magical needles to begin the magic.
There are the more traditional teddy bear patterns or you could stick with a traditional dolly knitting pattern. The options are endless though. You could pick a plushie character and go for a donkey or hippo. There are fantasy characters like mermaids or fairies. The choice is endless
Knitting toys is less expensive than knitting clothing. If you want a short pattern that will use less than a ball of wool and will knit up faster than a cardigan then a toy is for you.
You don’t have to commit to 10 balls of wool at a time like you would for a jumper. You don’t really need to buy the top quality wool or yarn to create these toys. In fact, the leftover wool from your another project can be used to create a toy.
Also, you are free to play with different colors which makes it very pocket friendly and satisfying at the same time.
You can be as creative as you want when knitting toys. This actually helps keep your mind busy and also allows you to let your mind be imaginitive and intuitive as it likes.
Add ribbon, buttons and embellishments to your toy to make it a truly one off piece.
The internet is filled with toy patterns. In fact, there are hundreds of websites that not only provide great toy patterns, but also give complete step by step guides on how to knit and assemble toys.
(Shameless plug) Take a look round the Knitting by Post website as you are here and see if you can find a pattern that you would like to make, there are hundreds to choose from. We even have some free patterns here.
There are other places to find patterns too. You can find tons of toy patterns for inspiration using Google, Pinterest and Facebook
Knitting toys is nothing short of fun! The children will love your creations and their parents adore you for keeping them busy playing with your finished toys.
There’s nothing more satisfying and fun than the smile and laughter of the kids when you gift them toys. Don’t forget to take a picture when you are done as you can also show off your finished items online in some of the many forums on the internet.
