Big Breakfast

On today’s delightful menu, we have a mouthwatering selection of play foods: bacon, eggs, beans, sausage, tomato, and waffle! This charming set of knitted play food is perfect for imaginative playtime and is crafted using minimal amounts of yarn, making it an excellent way to use up any leftover ends from your yarn skeins or balls. By creating these adorable play foods, you'll not only reduce waste but also engage in a fun and creative knitting project.

The beans pattern features fun knitting bobbles, adding texture and flair, while the tomato showcases beautiful Fair-Isle (stranded) colour-work techniques that enhance the overall appearance and allow for a pop of vibrant color. Designed by the talented Amanda Berry @fluffandfuzz, this delightful breakfast set is knitted using soft acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles, rather than in the round, which makes it easy to follow for knitters of varying skill levels.

Ideal for confident beginners and above, this play food knitting pattern incorporates a variety of essential techniques including casting on and off, basic knits and purls, increases and decreases, and seaming to finish the pieces neatly. Each item in this delightful breakfast ensemble can be made individually, allowing you to mix and match or create a complete breakfast spread. Enjoy the satisfaction of crafting these adorable knitted foods that will bring joy to children and adults alike!

So grab your needles and some colorful DK yarn, and let’s get started on this fun knitting adventure! Perfect for gifts, playtime, or even as a decorative piece, these knitted breakfast foods are sure to delight!
