Spring will be so colorful – knitting and crocheting in the trend color of 2022

We are diving ever deeper into a world of digitalization. Virtual events are part of our daily life. This opens up new opportunities and possibilities for us, while also making us rethink our once-established ideas of life. Very Peri is a bright and powerful blue shade with a reddish-violet undertone that not only illustrates the merging of the digital world with our physical lives, but also opens a cheerful, lively view of the world and the here and now. This powerful color is meant to inspire creativity and imaginative innovation. At the same time, it is a communication tool for expressing emotions. Very Peri reflects the hope of finding answers in colors. The wide-ranging possibilities ahead of us also become clear through this complex, carefully considered color.

The fact that this lively color symbolizes broad opportunities is also evident in its many combinations. From a complementary color palette and a harmonious composition of natural tones to a dynamic presence among neutral shades and a cheerful, fresh play of color - Very Peri shines in each of these compositions.

Subtle color combinations, almost pastel shades. A balance of warm and cool nuances. The perfect example shining in this wonderful color composition is the knitted mesh-pattern scarf. Not only do the colors flow on the same wavelength, but a delicate gradient also emphasizes the balance of the knitted scarf. This fashionable accessory was knitted from the Gründl gradient yarn Pastello. With its high cotton content, the colorful yarn provides pleasant wearing comfort and unique durability. Perfect for a springlike look.

Another handmade DIY project that reflects this gentle color world is our crocheted bear grasping toy made from pure OEKO-TEX certified merino wool Merino Pure. Two shades of purple nestle gently against each other and create a DIY crochet idea for babies that will certainly not be put down quickly. We think it is a wonderful purple learning adventure for the littlest ones. The free grasping toy crochet pattern is available to download on our website.

Here, tones connected to the environment spring from their natural sources. This color palette contains shades of green meant to signal hope and strength. That is exactly what the socks with wave pattern in a mix of purple, blue, and green tones represent. Natural nuances paired with an organic, wave-like structure create a sense of ease and stand for a love of nature. Just like the matching sock yarn Hot Socks Rubin. This Gründl sock yarn is made from 50% wool (merino superwash), 25% viscose (bamboo), and 25% polyamide. Thanks to the merino wool and viscose content, you can look forward to cuddly-soft socks. How can you knit these Gründl socks? Simply grab a ball of sock yarn and the right needles, and sock knitting can begin. The free wave-pattern sock instructions are of course available to download.

Same color world, similar knitting project. Our free basic sock pattern also fits perfectly with the powerful and radiant color world of the Pantone Color of the Year 2022. Knitted from the high-quality sock yarn Hot Socks Lazise, the result is socks that are the perfect creative project for all beginner knitters. Look forward to Italian sock yarn with a wonderful gradient. Trendy, fashionable, up to date!

Next comes a DIY knitting project for spring. We love the knitted triangular shawl with fringes made from the pure cotton yarn Cotton Quick print, with a color pattern directly from the ball. You heard that right: the exciting coloring appears straight from the ball, without knotting or changing yarn. It spices up any outfit and creates a good mood not only because of the pleasant wearing comfort thanks to 100% cotton. The Pantone shade of the year 2022 is also anchored here. Perfect for your bright spring outfit, because it is the best way to enjoy the first rays of sunshine.

Last but not least, here is a free crochet pattern. Do you already know our two amigurumi dolls crochet dolls Luna and Sun? These crocheted dolls were created in collaboration with @crochetkrissie. And as if Krissie had known, the two magical crochet figures shine in the Pantone Color of the Year. If that is not a sign?! A wonderful crochet project for yourself or as a gift for crochet fans. All you need for the crocheted dolls are a few balls of Gründl cotton yarn Cotton Quick uni, crochet hooks in sizes 2.5 and 3, and of course the detailed crochet pattern. As usual, we have made it available for you as a free download. When will your crochet adventure begin?

Subtle and elegant - that describes the knitted socks with fine vertical rib made from the Gründl sock yarn Hot Socks Rubin perfectly. The composition of radiant purple tones with natural nuances such as brown, beige, and a warm gray, together with the knitted vertical rib, creates a timeless design. A sock classic for young and old that is worth knitting several times with the free sock pattern.

Now things get lively. We think this play of colors is perfect for cheerful spring days. Just knitting and crocheting with these colors already puts you in a good mood. Wearing them, of course, even more so. Every look at the handmade one-of-a-kind piece makes the heart beat a little faster.

Next come crocheted accessories that certainly stand up to the knitted version when it comes to color. The warm color combination of red, orange, and of course purple tones shines in full brilliance. Combined with airy crochet patterns, a sense of ease and lightness is visible at first glance in the crocheted beanie hat with scarf. Ah, we are already longing for warm spring days when we can wear our handmade crochet accessories. These colorful crochet one-of-a-kind pieces are made from the pure cotton yarn Cotton Quick uni. The mercerized and gassed pure cotton yarn creates handmade projects with a light shine and unbeatable wearing comfort. The cotton fiber can absorb plenty of moisture and is anti-allergenic on the skin. So let’s go: crochet hook in hand and look forward to a skin-friendly spring accessory.

What adults have should of course not be missing for children: fashionable highlights in the trendiest colors. So we quickly knitted the brightest purple tones, combined with pink nuances, into cuddly-soft accessories for children. Et voila: the result is the knitted hat and scarf for children made from the easy-care and durable all-purpose yarn Lisa Premium uni. We think it is the perfect Easter gift for children, a great DIY birthday idea, or simply a way to keep the little ones’ wardrobes fashionably up to date.

Our cheerful, cheeky cat girl also shines in the joyful Pantone colors 2022. Purple paired with pink and a delicate shade of green - the amigurumi cat is a trendy decorative element and, of course, is also waiting to be cuddled extensively. This cuddly toy was crocheted from the pure cotton yarn Cotton Fun. A yarn that not only scores with its OEKO-TEX certification, but is also tested according to the European toy standard DIN EN 71-3. Perfect for long cuddle sessions. We think this crocheted cuddly toy is impossible not to love. How about giving it as a handmade gift for children? Cat Kathi is also perfect as a creative family project: the free cuddly toy crochet pattern is of course available on our site as a free download. Grab yarn, learn to crochet together, and discover the joy of handicrafts. These are the special things spring brings.

We stay in the same color composition but turn to another topic: hand-knitted socks. We have three free sock patterns to download that carry the Pantone shade of the year 2022 within them. The knitted Gründl socks with cable made from Hot Socks Pearl color impress not only with a fantastic colorway but also with their unmistakably soft feel. A share of cashmere and merino wool provides softness of the highest class. Perfect for cozy days when you long for an overwhelming dose of color and comfort.

For everyone who wants to reach the goal quickly and likes to skip a step: how about hand-knitted socks without a heel? You heard that right. Because these socks are knitted in a spiral pattern without a heel, you will have socks in your hands in no time - and they fit more than just one size. Wonderful as a sock gift for your loved ones, as house socks for guests, or of course for yourself. With the colors of the Gründl sock yarn Hot Socks color used for them, you will think very carefully about giving the socks away. ;)

Spring brings many new routines with it. Perfect for dedicating yourself to a sports activity you may not be used to yet: yoga. The best part: with hand-knitted yoga socks made from the high-quality sock yarn Hot Socks Rubin, shining in the invigorating color world of the Pantone Color of the Year 2022, this bold experiment is supported in color too. All you need to note: knit the socks without toe and heel. Why socks without a heel?
