Creating dolls knitting patterns for your business.

"Free knitting paters (patterns)"

Dolls knitting patterns are fun to make up. They are also a very good seller for your home-based business.

I have two daughters and three granddaughters, so there is always a need for new doll clothes.

One of my granddaughters collects Cabbage Patch Dolls. Last year I made her a new wardrobe for one of these dolls. She was delighted with the sweaters, hats, slippers and blankets.

In the process I made up some new knitting patterns. She was thrilled with her Christmas presents. It was very easy on my budget and I developed some great new patterns for my book.

With dolls knitting patterns you don’t have to be fancy. Use colors and designs for changes. I like to make up sweaters and hats the best.

Doing the Paper Work

Develop you pattern and have it typed up in clear directions. Take some pictures and place them in your directions. Again this doesn’t have to be fancy. Make your pictures clear and the directions easy to follow.

Now if you have a scanner, some of the time you can place the item in the scanner and scan straight from the item. It’s all according to the size of the item.

When you are selling your patterns be sure to take some completed items and the directions. This is very good for when you go to your shows and bazaars. Many people who go to these shows are not just shopping for a product. They also knit or crochet and will want to buy the patterns. When using free knitting patters always check the copyright for permission to use the pattern for selling the completed items.

Flea markets and Yard Sale Finds

I found some 18 niche dolls and Cabbage Patch Dolls at the flea markets and yard sales for only a couple of dollars each. I took them home and cleaned them up. I now use them to model my latest dolls knitting patterns.

Selling patterns is nice because once you create the pattern all the hard work is done. You now just sell and resell the same pattern.

Some of the most popular dolls would be the American Girl Doll or 18 inch doll, the Cabbage Patch Dolls and the Barbie Doll or fashion dolls
