1:12th scale Apricot Leaf bedspread

Discover the timeless beauty of the Apricot Leaf pattern, a traditional design that has graced knitwear for over 250 years. While the intricate leaf motif has a long-standing heritage, the unique border design featured here is my personal creation, ensuring that your project stands out.

Materials Required to Knit This Stunning Pattern in 1:12th Scale:

• For the Bedspread: Use size 22 needles (0.70 mm/US size 6/0) and 1.5-2 balls of 20g size 100 crochet cotton or high-quality sewing thread. Each individual square in this pattern uses approximately 5 metres of yarn, so plan your materials accordingly!
• For the Cellular Blanket: Opt for size 16 needles (1.5 mm/US size 3/0) and gather 75-100 metres of 1-ply wool to create your cozy blanket.

Don't worry about achieving a precise gauge, as the sizing can easily be adjusted to fit various dolls house bed sizes, making this project versatile and adaptable to your needs.

How to Adapt This Pattern for a Full-Size Human Version:

Both the bedspread and blanket designs can be expertly transformed into full-size items. For complete details on the full-size adaptations, please refer to the accompanying notes in the actual pattern.

For instance, to create a double bedspread measuring 1.2 metres by 7.38 metres, you will require a total of 315 squares, allowing for a finished size of 2.4 metres by 2.1 metres (equating to 15 squares by 21 squares). This includes additional edging to ensure a polished finish.

This pattern is perfect for both seasoned knitters and beginners eager to try their hand at creating something distinctive. Whether you’re making a miniature bedspread for your dolls house or seeking a lovely throw for a double bed, the Apricot Leaf pattern offers endless possibilities for creativity!
