The Best Free Knook Patterns

Do You Knook?

There is some way that you found yourself on this page; either you already knook and are looking for some fun free knook patterns, or you thought “Knook? That sounds both weird and interesting. Let’s check it out”.

Either way, here you are.

In a nutshell, knooking is making knit stitches with a special hook called a knook.  It’s a bit like crossing crochet with knitting. “Knit” + “Hook” = “Knook”!

The knook itself looks like a crochet hook with an eye on one end where a long cord is slipped through. You use a crochet motion and end up with a finished product that looks like knit.

We did some searching for you and found great free knook patterns and put them right here on one organized page.

Free Knook Patterns

Scarves:  Many people suggest that you start with a scarf as your first knook project.  I don’t necessarily believe that’s true; there are other simple things for beginners.  

However, take some time to look at the scarf patterns we have collected.  Some are simple, like the single knit and purl scarf, and others are more intricate and very stunning like the beautiful variegated infinity scarf.

Check out the free downloadable pattern for a lovely scarf that lets you take advantage of the versatility of the knook. The stitches featured in this pattern include knit check, crochet openwork, knit diagonal rib, crochet ridge, knit basketweave, single crochet, and knit pennants.

All scarves definitely are not just for beginners.

Washcloths:  Once again, our free patterns for knook washcloths range in difficulty. There are very simple patterns, perfect for beginners that don’t use as much yarn or take as much time as the aforementioned “start with a scarf!” call to action.

If you are more seasoned with the knook, take a look at the ladybug washcloth with the design woven right in!

The free knook boot cuff pattern will have you creating a classy touch for your boots, giving you a chic look. This is a simple pattern, using only the knit and purl stitches, but the finished cuffs, complete with buttons, look amazing.
