We can now reveal that this years Advent Calendar will make a Winter jumper for either a male or female doll. <\/p>\n

Depending on the materials and needles used the resulting jumper will knit up either in 1:6th scale (to fit a 11 to 12-inch female doll such as Barbie or Sindy or a 13-inch male doll such as Ken, Action Man or GI Joe) or 1:12th scale for a 14-16 cm\/5\u00bd-6-inch tall dolls house doll. You will have to wait until 1st December to see the actual designs though.<\/p>\n

The free pattern will be written rather than charted, with around 10 rows of pattern per day, some days will have more knitting, others less.<\/p>\n

Full details of yarns, needles, etc. for both scale miniature sizes were posted here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We will not provide tutorials to go with the project, as most of the techniques have been covered previously in our hint and tips.<\/p>\n

Special offers on patterns will again be offered during the Advent period, each lasting 24 hours <\/p>\n

Just remember that the FREE Advent Calendar pattern will be removed from this blog on 6th January 2026 and as previously, be offered as a paid pattern soon afterwards. So please collect all the parts before they are removed or be prepared to buy the pattern.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
