Little Gherkin Pickle
If you've stumbled upon numerous crochet pickle patterns online and felt inspired to make one, you're not alone! However, if knitting is more your jam, then you’re in luck! I’ve created an original knitting pattern for a cute, quirky pickle that’s perfect for knitters of all skill levels. Now, my house is overflowing with delightful knitted pickles, and yours can be too! With endless possibilities for fun colors and sizes, you can knit a whole pantry full of these adorable greens to showcase in your home.
**Knitting Skills Required:** This pattern is beginner-friendly, and you’ll need to know the following techniques: CO = cast on, K = knit, P = purl, M1 = Make one, as well as knitting in the round using double-pointed needles (dpns). You’ll also learn some fun stitches like Kfb = Knit front and back, MB = Make Bobble, and K2tog = Knit 2 stitches together. Finally, you'll need to know how to BO = bind off your finished pickle.
The gauge isn’t crucial for this project, but my finished pickle measures about 6 inches tall and 2 ½ inches wide—a perfect size for display or as a playful gift! So grab your favorite green yarn, some dpns, and let your creativity run wild as you knit a fun assortment of pickles for your home, friends, or family. Enjoy crafting these whimsical, knitted treasures—they’re sure to bring a smile to anyone’s face!
