Check out these amazing bridal knitting projects that you’ll love making and brides will absolutely adore receiving on their special day.

We’ve all heard the old adage about needing “something borrowed and something blue”, so why not incorporate that into your project? This knitted garter might not be borrowed, but it’ll look gorgeous if you lace a shining blue ribbon through the eyelets in the center. Get the pattern on Travel Knitter!

The title of this pattern is incredibly accurate; the chances that such a gorgeous handmade bag will become a family heirloom are very high! Give your bride something she can actually use on her wedding day, even if it’s just to hold spare tissues. Suzy Rai has the pattern for you!

6. Winter wedding shawl

Thin, lacy shawls are gorgeous, but they won’t protect the bride from wind and cold very well. If you’re attending a winter wedding, think about knitting a thicker, warmer pattern like this one with the big, stylish ribbon instead! Get the pattern on Elegant Knitting.
