These autumn coasters are a great way to knit with scraps. They make lovely table decor, even when they’re not being used. If you use cotton yarn with a yardage of 125 m / 50 g, you’ll need about 10 grams per coaster. Six different motifs are included.

Thanks to the detailed pattern, written out stitch by stitch, this is a great beginner project for beginners, or a quick little project in between for advanced knitters.

I always knit and crochet doll clothes from my yarn scraps. My granddaughters love the dresses the most. That’s why I’d like to share their favorite designs with you here. It doesn’t take much yarn—just scraps—and you’ll quickly have a beautiful result. I often crochet some to keep in stock, so I always have a surprise for them in the closet. It’s also always a nice little gift for St. Nicholas Day.

I hope you enjoy looking at them and making your own.

Warm regards from Ina

Crocheted modern doll dresses with hats
They’re beautifully tailored so the dresses fit the figure well. They have a neckline that also shows off a necklace nicely. The length of the crocheted skirt is adjustable.





Knitted Ball Gown
The dress is knitted in one piece using a set of double-pointed needles. Thanks to the color combinations, each dress looks unique.

You can make a child who is a doll mom with a doll baby (43–50 cm) very happy with a crocheted diaper like this. One will definitely not be enough. And that’s how lots of colorful leftover yarn turns into pretty diapers. Toddlers can handle them wonderfully too, since the diaper has Velcro closures.

It’s very easy to make.
