Miniature Knitting Patterns 3 1/2" Pearl

I have called this design Pearl as it  is the first pattern I did for her.

 REARL for for the doll named Pearl

The design is knitted in Mettler Thread and when using Venne 70/2 the outfit is slightly larger and fits the Hidie Ott Child perfectly

I love knitting petticoats and often the adventurous knitter can so easily turn them into dresses.

 I find it is where I experiment a little

Favourite Things

I was going through my photographs and came across these of a large doll I made back in .......I remember the scene also had a sleeping Sean in it, made into a fairy sleeping on a log of drift wood, can't find the photograph.

This doll was made for the "Fantasy Section" in our annual doll competition. I no longer owned or should I say I owned the doll for a very short time as I had promised it to my cousin.

She came second in the section.

A little boy a nd girl in the woods won  a very well deserved 1st prize.

Now I would have liked to have owned those two little ones, the whole scene made my imagination run riot.

These were the very first silk ribbon roses I made ...and there were so many!

Miniature Knitting Patterns for the Nursery

Sunshine and Shadows are patterns for a 1:12th scale nursery.

Shadows

The little Teddy was made by Ana Esteves

When I first designed the drape for the crib it was longer and onto the floor. As I had had the crib made for me I decided the bar for the drape was too low so had another made. In the pattern I say lengthen or shorten the drape to suite the height of your crib.

Sunshine 

The baby bag was made by Manda Theart.

 

Manda has just brought out her first book detailing 

"Her up to now secret techniques that she uses for making these delightful miniatures in polymer clay"

Knitting Patterns for 7 1/2" Riley

This is my latest pattern for Riley which I have called Tamara, the two colors were lying next to each other on my desk....and so the design began!!!

Looking at them I thought those colours would be just right for Riley. 

I don't usually choose brighter colors but they compliment each other so well.

 I will have to make the same outfit for a new doll Dianne has given me as it is an all porcelain mold, which this design has to have.

TAMARA for Riley

Enjoy!

Miniature Knitting Patterns 3" Sean

Designing for "Boy Girl Twins" is a lot of fun.....maybe the little boy might not agree with me, what with lacy fabric....

This is a design I did I think last year as you can see 3 inch little Sean is great size to work on.

WILLIAM and LAYLA for 3" Sean

Reducing this pattern using Catona 80 and .07mm knitting needles should be fine for Belly Button Baby who is just under 2 inches. Prepare yourself for dropped stitches by having an even smaller size knitting needle to hand.
