Camper Van

For retro surfing and seaside enthusiasts, we present a delightful and squishy knitted Camper Van pattern! Perfect for intermediate and advanced knitters, this charming design by Amanda Berry (@fluffandfuzz) allows you to create a playful camper van that will surely evoke nostalgia for coastal adventures.

The body of the camper van is expertly knitted in one piece, utilizing short row shaping and intarsia colour-work in garter stitch, resulting in a seamless and vibrant finish. The wheels and bumpers are crafted separately and skillfully sewn on after assembly, ensuring a polished look. To add the final touch, the window struts are beautifully embroidered in chain stitch, giving your creation extra character and charm.

You'll be using acrylic DK yarns on single pointed needles (please note, this pattern is not knitted in the round). Other essential knitting techniques included in this pattern are casting on and off, basic knits, increases and decreases, as well as knitting stripes. Additionally, it involves seaming and some light embroidery decoration to complete your gorgeous knitted camper van.

This fun and engaging pattern is not only a wonderful project for those with an intermediate skill level, but it also makes a fantastic gift for friends and family who love knitting or have a passion for retro-themed décor. Enhance your knitting repertoire with this unique knitted Camper Van pattern and bring a piece of seaside joy into your home!
