This seamless, double sided, knitted crown makes a wonderful gift for the kids in your life (or for yourself!) This Crown is an intermediate knitter’s joy with so many interesting parts.
There are 7 sizes available to will fit kids as young as 12 months, all the way up to adult sizing (for the kids at heart, or the dress-up parties!). Less than 50g of 4ply Luxury is required for most sizes, so this would be a great use of scraps or oddments.
Requirements:
- BWM Luxury 4ply x 1 ball
- 2x 3.25mm (US 3) circular needles, minimum length 55cm/22"
- 3.25mm double pointed needles
- stitch markers, 11-17 depending on size
- 1 small cable needle (or large stitch marker)
- tapestry needle, scissors
- 2x pieces waste yarn at least 60cm/24" length
