Baby Annabell Pram Set - Free Pattern

I wish there had been a knitting pattern for a sleeping bag when my children were babies (a long time ago now) and as I haven't got any babies to knit for what better than to make one for Annabell. I tried a few different variations to try and reduce seaming etc, and came up with this one that is made in one piece from the hem with a front seam (easily knit in the round to the front opening) The sleeves are knit first then added to the body to begin the yoke. My very helpful tester suggested…

Ravelry: 12" baby doll dress by linda Mary

I found a vintage pattern (circa 1960) in my sister’s stash for a baby’s matinee jacket. i hadn't seen the pattern before and my sister couldn't remember where it came from. To add to the mystery, on the back of the pattern the name Alice was handwritten in large letters - hence the name Alice Matinee jacket It’s a lovely design but as I haven’t got any babies to knit for, decided to alter the pattern for Baby Annabell Doll and include a dress, bonnet and booties. The pattern would also fit…

While browsing online for ideas, I came across a lovely red and white fairisle knitted baby dress for sale. As there aren't any babies in my family to knit for, (don't they grow up so fast) I made this for Annabell. Then I found some bright yellow yarn in my stash so along with cream and a touch of green knitted up the second dress. Now, as I may have mentioned before, I love knitting socks, especially tiny little socks like these which complete the outfit. Iv'e given instructions for single…

I made one for ted so Annabell had to have one too. This is an all in one sleepsuit in double knitting yarn, with raglan shaping. The suit can be made with or without feet. Short rows are used to shape the heel, and as Annabell is a ‘sitting down’ doll a lot of shaping is required for a good fit at the back. However, if your doll is not a ‘sitting down’ type which doesn’t need so much shaping, I have added instructions at the end of the body shaping, but, as all dolls are different, keep…

This little sweater is very similar to my Teddy ribbed jacket, same simple rib and the current trend of block colours. Made in 4ply it takes less than 20g of yarn great for using up all those tiny amounts. The pink/blue and white sweater was made in oddments of Rico 4ply but unfortunately its now out of production (shows how long i had it stashed away). For the mustard/green and grey sweater I used Stylecraft life 4ply which has a great range of trendy colours. The back and front is made in…
