Do you want to learn how to knit? Check out the knitting pattern for this beautiful yellow sweater!

Thank you so much for your kind words about my latest obsession: Knitting! I get plenty of questions about the sweaters I wear in my posts, and the projects I share on Instagram. Now, I decided to make a post here on the blog too. My goal is to gather all the knitting content in one easy-to-find spot so that you can learn how to knit too!

The top picture depicts the yellow sweater I designed and knitted myself. If you recognize it, it's probably because I wear it in the header image of the blog too! This is one of my favorite garments. I call it my Sunflower sweater. I'm also wearing a lovely knitted collar in the same color.

I finally had some help translating my first knitting patterns to English, and I'm beyond excited! You can find the pattern for my sunflower sweater in my webshop at sarabackmo.com. Follow the link below to buy the pattern! And don't forget to post pictures of your progress and tag them #saraknits!

I know that a lot of garden enthusiasts often like knitting and crocheting too. I often reach for the knitting needles as soon as it gets too cold to be in the garden all the time. If you haven't tried it before, now is the time to get started! Why not watch my video below if you're interested in learning how to knit. This is my first knitting video.

How to Knit and Chrochet

Right now, I'm knitting a thick wool sweater. You can see more of my knitting projects on my Instagram. I'm usually working on a few things at once since I get bored if I do one thing at a time. Keep your eyes open for more videos and articles about knitting here on the blog. If you need some inspiration before you learn how to knit yourself, you can check the links below:
