Furniture Feet – a free pattern.

My Furniture Feet Pattern is moving up in the world. It was featured in the latest edition of Knit Magazine  along with my Helene Beret

It is also getting quite popular on ravelry. People from all over the world are knitting “socks” for their chairs and tables, in all kinds of feltable wool.

Here are three beautiful examples.

Sabine from München, Germany made these beautiful beaded green “socks” for her exquisite chair.

Helle from Aulum in Denmark, made all these pure white ones:

This fully kitted out dining room is all the way from Colorado. The talenter knitters ravelry name is

endofthepier.

I got this idea in July 2009, and I made a set right away. That set is still in use and none of my “socks” have got a hole yet. Plötulopi seems to be very well suited for this kind of projects, I have teenagers, so my furniture is not treated kindly…

    Keeping socks on your baby’s feet is no simple task. One little kick, a tug at the toes and they’re off. And of course it’s always one sock from every pair that gets lost!.

    Safety is paramount when choosing a baby crib. The best baby cribs will have Juvenile Product Manufacturers Association (JPMA) certification. This certification ensures that it meets and surpasses many US safety regulations. So, only looking at brands with a JPMA certification is a good place to start. Brands like Munire, Bellini and Bassett cribs as well as others have JPMA certification.*

  4. I think dyed baby socks are a pretty clever idea!

  5. And so I have been using BABY SOCKS from walmart that I dyed the same color as my furniture for about 10 years. I thought it was a clever idea I had. Never thought about knitting my own.

    …just to let you know. There is a set of your gray Lopi “furniture feet” on one of dining room chairs, here in far-off California. I’ve had requests to make some for other people, but my supply of Lopi is running dangerously low! I love the furniture socks – they work perfectly!

  7. This is a great idea and I could use this on some furniture legs. I have to send this to my daughter. She’s the knitter :) Thanks for sharing. I’ll keep in touch with twitter & hellocotton.
