35+ Free Knitting Patterns For Preemie Babies

Last Updated: 24th August, 2017
It’s Thursday! Which means today we have more wonderful, and more importantly free, knitting patterns to share with you.
If you’ve missed out on the pattern posts we shared recently here at KnittingWomen.com, here’s a quick roundup of what is available for you to enjoy so far: 33 Baby Blankets, 50 Baby Booties, 30 Chunky Blankets and Afghans, 27 Cushion Covers and 20 Tea Cosies.
Today we have a collection of knitting patterns which are essential for some new mothers: patterns for items and clothes to use for premature babies. An expectant mother never imagines the eventuality that her baby will be born pre-term, and oftentimes new mothers are caught unexpected with no clothes or accessories for their babies. Preemie clothes are also sometimes hard to come by, so these knitting patterns will come in very handy! These can be knitted and donated to hospitals and charities to help new mothers in the future. These are precious patterns, for precious babies!
Enjoy these patterns, and happy knitting!

I am a governor at our local hospital and have been knitting baby hats and cardigans for the nnu. Have you any patterns that I can purchase as I have done so many of the same pattern that I feel the babies not look individual with hats and cardigans all the same design.
Thank you
Patricia Price.

Hi everyone, I would like some help!!! I am an amputee and confined to a wheelchair. I lost my leg two years ago which has changed my life. But I am as independent as this will allow, the problem is I get bored but after giving it much thought have decided to knit cardigans and other things for the premature baby unit at my local hospital. When my own children were small (many years ago, hehe) I knitted almost all the clothes babies and children needed. So the help I need is if anyone has patterns, needles and any baby wool they can spare or have left over from your own projects I would be very grateful. Thank you A.T.a

Hello Ann,
l knit and crochet for a group on Facebook called Needles & Hooks Angels & Preemies, it’s a wonderful group of people, we don’t just do things for babies though, we also do stuff for Soldiers Off The Streets and various other causes, like dementia patients and children s homes.
If you’d be interested and have a Facebook page please feel free to find me and friend me, l can then get you into the group……
Much admiration for your persistence, hope to hear from you soon.
Hugs
