Hi
I was wondering if anyone knew of a free pattern for a Wall hanging. I've got a large space on my bedroom wall that I want to fill and don't want to hang anymore boring pictures etc. I want to do something different and a bit personal.

I fancy a change from knitting jumpers etc and want to do a project on a much larger scale! I'm stuck though and can't seem to find any patterns and wouldn't know where to start otherwise!!!

Please help me!!!!!!! Lol
Thanks. X

why not do something freeform. Basically draw a rough design then knit pieces, different shapes and different stitches and sew them together. You could use a duvet cover as a backing and sew pieces on to that. The design could be shapes or even a picture. The shapes, colours and textures will make the picture. Let us know how you get on. Good luck

Hi there!

Try joining www.ravelry.com - its free to join and they have loads of free patterns as well as some you can buy too and I've seen wall hangings in there, even a shadow one of Snape from Harry Potter!

Good luck

Have a look at the cross st patterns, you can try working 1 or more of these to make a wallhanging, I know that a knit chart works well for xstitch as I am in the middle of popeye, sometimes I hands get sore from knitting and sewing is a light relief.
