King Aidan

Introducing a delightful crown knitting pattern that's perfect for your little kings, princes, queens, or princesses! This enchanting crown is designed to be knitted in the round, making it a fun and engaging project for knitters of all skill levels. You’ll be pleasantly surprised at how quickly you can whip up this project, though the optional jewels do require a bit of hand sewing to attach them securely. For this crown, you will need to pick up and knit stitches, and the gauge is 22 stitches to 10cm (or 5.5 stitches to 1 inch) when worked in stocking stitch (stockinette). Our detailed written instructions guide you through every step of the process, complemented by explanatory photos that enhance your understanding. This pattern includes an introductory section on the fundamentals of circular knitting, along with essential techniques and abbreviations you may encounter. The crown band utilizes two different yarns: one main color for the body and another for adding charming dot details. The dot yarn also serves to create a playful ball and fabulous jewels, while a third yarn is used for the crown’s majestic spikes. Finally, the fourth yarn forms the elegant top of the crown, resulting in a stunning finished piece. For those planning to craft the larger size, you'll need approximately 230 meters (or 250 yards) of yarn, while the smaller size requires about 215 meters (or 235 yards). This crown pattern not only makes a lovely accessory for dress-up but also serves as an inspiring project to gift to a special little one in your life. Don’t miss out on the chance to bring this regal design to life—start your knitting adventure today!
