Dear users, dear designers,
You’ll find some still rather unknown + delightful patterns here in this thread. Have fun downloading.

@Authors,
2-3 patterns per designer are enough. All patterns promoted here in the thread must have at least 5 sales / a CR of at least 3% ++ must not have been promoted in the forum in the past 3 weeks. Please don’t present the same pattern gems every month. For each pattern, please don’t forget the link, an image or several images, as well as information about materials, handicraft techniques, etc. 

A cardigan for toddlers (size 86-92) can also be wonderfully knitted with gradient yarn cakes. My granddaughter loved it and wore it for a long time. There is a matching hat to go with it. Ideal for every season, because cardigans are always useful.

The larger, thicker teddy bears also like to have a warm sweater, for example this one. It is knitted with raglan from the top down and even fits babies or larger dolls.

The sweater needs only a little yarn and is sure to bring joy.

It’s that time of year again—hat season.

With this model, the cuff is folded over, making it especially warm around the ears. 

For this pattern, you should already have some practice using a cable needle. It is knitted in the round with a set of double-pointed needles. 

Carla Hat - Currently 30% off

This elegant knitted dress for small dolls  is really cozy thanks to the sleeves and hem made from plush yarn. It fastens at the back with snaps, making it easy to put on. Knitted in the doll mom’s favorite colors (here pink or purple), it’s sure to be well received as a little gift.



Here you can see a fashion doll dressed as a Black Forest girl. Of course, the traditional Bollenhut is a must! You’ll also find the crafting instructions for it in the pattern. The dress is crocheted here. The original traditional costume includes a black apron (right). But if you’d like it to be a bit more colorful, a red apron also goes perfectly with it.



And of course, something can be crocheted for the male fashion dolls too. Since the doll moms like to play princess with their little dolls, the matching fairy-tale prince is naturally needed. With this prince costume, “he” is dressed just right. Doesn’t he look truly fairy-tale-like?

From my shop, I’d like to introduce you to a few pattern gems that have gone undiscovered so far.

Sewing pattern Bedding for the doll bed

A wonderful project for anyone who can sew a little. All doll mommies would be delighted with new bedding. Small fabric scraps are enough. The blankets and pillows are fully machine washable. It’s reversible bedding, so you always have 2 sides and can play with that.





These go well with crocheted pillows and/or a rug:





Set: Round seating furniture for small dolls

And if you only have dolls and no doll furniture yet, then this would definitely be just right for you: round seating furniture with various pillows, blankets, a rug, stool, magazines ... - everything is included in the large set. It’s really great fun to crochet and to play with.

If you’d like your St. Martin’s lantern to be more decorative than childlike, then I’d like to suggest this model.


 
This lantern is made from photo cardstock and tracing paper. Measuring approximately 21 x 21 x 22 cm, it’s quite small and easy to carry. To cut it out, you’ll need to be comfortable using a craft knife. After the St. Martin’s procession, it can be turned into a nightlight.
