Here are some examples of knitting accessories. Choose something suitable for your next knitting project.
You don't like expensive jewellery made of gold, silver or platinum, but prefer natural variations? Then how about knitted jewellery for a change? Not only is it much cheaper, it also looks much more natural and creative. At Crazypatterns you will find numerous knitting patterns for accessories with which you can easily knit your own desired necklace. For example, short necklaces, medium-length or long necklaces. A particularly beautiful example is the knotted necklace, which skilfully draws the eye to itself. You can also knit your own small or large pendants to go with your necklace.
The loop is currently all the rage. This is a round scarf that is worn loosely around the neck. Instead of the warming version for chilly days, you can also knit a necklace loop as a special accessory. Vary the pattern and colours to have the right loop jewellery ready for different outfits.
Necklaces are worn very tightly and are also used to accessorise outfits. Create your very own look by knitting small, narrow or slightly wider collars with the matching knitting patterns for accessories.
Of course, the classic scarf is still a popular accessory that many people don't want to do without in winter and on chilly days in autumn. Whether you're looking for a thick or thin scarf, or one with a fancy pattern, knit a scarf with the Crazypatterns accessory knitting tutorials.
Do you love to add playful details to your outfit? Then a small knitted bow would be a great choice to spice up your look. You can attach the bow to other garments or use it to embellish a scarf or bag. Add a visual highlight with a coloured bow.
Small scratches and cracks in the display don't have to be. Instead of just relying on the protective film, you can protect your smartphone even better against damage in the future with a knitted mobile phone cover. And the best thing about it is that the cover looks really chic and you can create your own individual piece when you use knitting patterns for accessories from Crazypatterns.
Another nice idea for practical everyday things are hairbands. Here you can knit accessories that are often used with hair. Create as many hairbands as you like with our knitting patterns for accessories. The advantage of knitted models is that they don't put a lot of strain on the hair like classic elastics, but are effectively gentle thanks to the soft materials. Broken hair is a thing of the past.
Bracelets are also very popular accessories. They come in many different materials. In addition to the classic precious metals (e.g. gold, silver), you can wear ones made of leather or the knitted version. Find the right knitting patterns for accessories, for example for a narrow or wide bracelet in the desired design.
In winter, we lose most of our heat through our heads, so we need a cosy hat. Why not use knitting patterns for accessories to knit a few beautiful hat variants? Whether in plain colours, with a pattern or as a reversible hat - there are no limits to your creativity. The popular pom-pom hats are always a great idea for children.
In the cold season, scarfs, hats and arm warmers are used as warming accessories. Cuffs are simply pulled over the forearms and serve as a substitute for long woollen jumpers. The ideal combination is a short jumper with chic knitted cuffs that are colour-coordinated with your outfit.
Do you always want to have your baby very close to you? Then why not choose a soft wrap that will keep your baby close to your body at all times.

As a complete knitting beginner, you might be wondering what the different stitches are all about. No problem, before you start knitting accessories, you can get an overview in our forum.

Crazypatterns' patterns also give you tips on which techniques and materials are important for each project. Use the advice in the tutorial and get more detailed information in our community if you need more support.
If you want to knit different accessories, you will need several knitting needles and yarns in different thicknesses. Depending on whether you want to knit thin or thicker versions, it's best to keep a small stock of your favourite yarns. Accessories that come into direct contact with the skin should be as easy to wash as possible. Try yarns made of cotton and polyacrylic or virgin wool to find the best varieties for knitting accessories. If you don't want to focus on the warming aspect of your accessories, you can also use thinner yarns.
Tip: Knitting needles in different thicknesses and matching yarns are often available in inexpensive sets for knitting beginners, so you can order the basic equipment at a lower price.

Are you still lacking the right ideas for accessories?
Before starting any major knitting project, we recommend that you make a stitch test. This way you can check exactly how many rows and stitches are needed to ensure that your accessory will turn out perfectly and that you can make your patterns available for download later with the correct information. The stitch gauge will vary depending on the thickness and material of the yarn, the gauge of the guarantor and needle, and the knitting pattern you choose. 10 x 10 cm is sufficient to make your gauge. Then use a ruler to determine the number of rows and stitches. These should correspond with the information in the knitting patterns for accessories.
Use Crazypatterns to improve your knitting skills or find new ideas to implement. Don't be afraid of complicated-sounding knitting patterns for accessories. With a little practice and support from our forum, you're sure to get the project done.
