10 Little House Knitting Patterns you Need Right Now
I love finding unique projects to create! These little houses are fun, small one-off projects to knit when taking a break from a much larger project.
I’ve rounded up 10 sweet little house knitting patterns, most use oddments of yarn making them perfect for stash buster yarns!
What I love is that most of the houses are simple designs allowing you to embellish them with flowers, window boxes, trees, shrubs, arbors, and more.
They all have a lovely hygge feel to them, don’t you think?
Use these houses as pincushions, bookends, door stoppers, sachets, ornaments, decoration, and toys. There’s even a house in this post that doubles as knitting needle storage!

10 Adorable Tiny House Knitting Patterns
#1. Little House Knitting Pattern
Here’s what the designer has to say about this project. “I have loved little houses my entire life. I love to draw houses, stitch houses, look at houses and I’m a huge homebody in my house! And not to leave out, our first yarn line is called Home with a Little House right on the tag. It’s most definitely a fun theme. So as you can imagine, I loved creating this knitted Little House. It is so sweet and charming. You could easily customize it to include different colors or stitch some flowers on the front or add shutters… the sky is the limit! I hope you’ll love knitting a Little House for yourself or for someone you love.”

#3. Little Woollie House Knitting Pattern
From this knitting pattern you can make yourself a Little Woollie House. The house is knitted on 5 doublepoint needles and with any doubleknit wool, and is robust enough to use as a toy, or keep as a beautiful ornament.
The pattern details how to knit a one, two or three storey house, with or without dormer window. It also shows you how to make a small bird for the roof. The main walls of the house are knitted in the round, and this means there is only a little sewing up at the gable ends of the roof.
The details on the house are embroidered on after the house has been stuffed. The pattern contains a diagram to help you with the sizing and position of the doors and windows. Personalize your house using some of these ideas: http://ginxcraft.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/architecture.html, and there are photo tutorials here to help you with the embroidery stitches you will need to make animals, trees etc.

#5. Dutch House Bookends Knitting Pattern
Keep your books in place with these whimsical Dutch House bookends. The two styles could also be used as door stops or even toys.
The pattern contains a diagram to help with the sewing up, and a picture to help you with embroidering the doors and windows. The pattern also contains a single pattern piece to make an inner lining from calico to contain the filling.
The two houses feature different roof shape and colors, but with enough similarities in style so that they look like a pair. The finished bookends are approximately 17cm x 9 cm x 9cm.
