BEDTIME for Sylvanian Families and Calico Critters from £3.50

Knit all the outfits in this picture!

This charming collection is designed in two sizes for standard adults and children to increase play value of the figurines, and gives an opportunity for a new schematic layout for serious collectors.

Using a pair of 2mm (UK size 14) needles and scraps of laceweight or 3ply yarn, you could create a colourful hospital ward, a school dormitory or pyjama party for your figurines. The construction is based on miniatures of human-sized patterns and with some help could be completed by a relative beginner knitter.

For yarn, try one of the new 3-ply sock yarns, or 2 strands of stranded embroidery threads, a soft crochet or tatting yarn.

I regret that, due to current VAT regulations in the EU, my EU customers are asked to purchase the posted paper leaflet version - my apologies; the VAT regulations for downloaded PDFs are just too complex for me to administer. Alternately, purchase the PDF download option then email me (see top of page) and ask for an emailed PDF which is VAT-free.

Paypal will give you the link to download your PDF file on payment and I recommend you take a note of the link details for future access, or print the pattern, or choose to buy in booklet or kit format to be posted to your address which Paypal will supply to Woollywoodlanders. If you require this to be send to a different address, perhaps as a present, please give details in the 'Notes' section which Paypal provides. The kit includes all the yarns you need, 2 mm needles and buttons. I have not included the larger needles for the sleeping bag, as I feel most knittrs already have these sizes in their collection. If not, I sell needles on my Etsy site (return to the front page (click on the topmost picture) and search for the Needles button. I will refund any surplus postage.
