MMW Designs: Hooded Poncho







Nothing says fun, cool-weather wear like a poncho! Use bright, spring colors for a pop of color or warm, fall colors for a toasty feel. My hooded poncho is designed to fit 18" dolls like American Girl dolls, but some adjustments can be made to fit smaller dolls. I can knit a larger poncho without a hood for Cabbage Patch dolls.

Hooded Ponchos will require a total of 2.5 ounces of yarn. Slightly less than 2 ounces is needed for a poncho without a hood.

The Your Yarn, My Needles fee for this garment is $20 with hood, $10 without a hood.

MMW Designs: Little Longies




Little longies are a fun addition to any wardrobe. They are easy to adjust sizing on and add personalization. Ruffled cuffs for girl dolls or seed stitch cuffs for boy babies. I can also make them shorts length.

Depending on the size needed, about 1.5 ounces of the main color and .5 ounces of a coordinating color is needed for longies. They can also be made in all of one color of yarn. I might require a few measurements from you to make the perfect fit.

The Your Yarn, My Needles fee for this garment is $10 for shorts, $15 for pants.

There are many wonderful longies knitters on Hyena Cart.

MMW Designs: Stripey Doll Dress





The Stripey Doll Dress is an original design of mine that can be knit in sock weight yarn or worsted weight yarn. I published a free pattern for the sock weight version on my family blog. This cute little summery dress looks great on dolls of many sizes and can also be worn with pants. This pattern was designed to showcase self-striping yarn, but also looks great in solids.

The sock weight version uses about 1.5 ounces of yarn, while the worsted weight version uses 2 ounces.

The Your Yarn, My Needles fee for this garment is $20 on sock weight or $15 on worsted weight yarn.
