Thereโs something about the spring that makes you want to change things up around the house.
Spring cleaning, a task that reflects the spirit of the season itself, is an opportunity to make your home feel fresh and new after everything has turned stale during winter.
Whether you get the feeling you want to repaint or you want a new pillow for the couch, now is a great time to get going on projects for the home.
Of course, there are a lot of great projects you can knit for your home this spring around the web.
Here are 10 projects that have crossed my radar lately:
1. Animal pot cozies
These animal pot cozies are the perfect way to add some whimsy to your indoor potted plants. The animal patterns would also make a fun and creative knitted gift idea for anyone in your life who has a green thumb.
2. Swatches pillow

Use this pattern and dress your paper lantern a little bit.
4. Chunky Basket
This Chunky basket from redheart can be made up in your favorite colors or to match your dรฉcor and be used in any room of the house.
