Hi

I've had a look through the forums, and I can't seem to find anything on this - please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong (I often am :rolleyes: )

I've been looking round the web for knitting patterns for barbie or Sindy, ebay have a few but they are quite expensive for just one item to make. does anyone know where I might be able to get these cheaply, or anyone have any patterns or links to patterns they might want to share!

Christmas is coming, and I want to get my knitting needles moving!

Many thanks!

Belle

    Yes, you can get some free Barbie patterns from the Lions Brand Website, but you do need to sign up for their (free) newsletter to be able to access them.

    If I come across any more I'll post :)
