Farthing Patterns
from
Frances Powell

All patterns are copyright
and may not be reproduced in any form
(including knitted up) for commercial gain
without written permission from
Buttercup Miniatures.


All patterns are 1/12th scale but can be adapted for 1/16th scale by knitting with needles two sizes smaller.

Most patterns are knitted using size 1.00mm needles although some will require .80mm or .70mm needles.

Men’s patterns can be knitted for 1/12th scale ladies or youths by using .80mm needles instead of 1.00mm needles.

Most patterns contain more than one item, a few patterns may also contain crochet, these are all clearly marked.

All patterns come with a 1/12th or 1/24th scale pattern for your little people.

Some patterns are graded as suitable for intermediate or experienced knitters. This refers to knitting in miniature as well as full size. If this is your first attempt at miniature knitting try an ungraded pattern first.

A colour photo and full details of needle and yarn requirements are given for each pattern.
