WonkyZebraBaby

Top shop for gifts.

Buyers bought gifts from this shop and gave them 5-star reviews!

Announcement    WonkyZebraBaby shop has lots of vintage baby patterns for you to choose from. All are sent as PDFs by email; often as quick as an Etsy instant download, but a more personal service and much quicker than 'regular' post.

The PDF Pattern email is sent as soon as possible, once a payment email from Etsy / Paypal is received. This is normally within 12 hours of purchase (again, please bear in mind there may be a time difference so WonkyZebra might be asleep here in the UK).
The patterns are reformatted and remastered from high quality, first generation scans, made from originals held in WonkyZebra's collection (so they can always be referred to directly if needed).

Almost all of the crochet patterns are in *UK English format; but free conversion charts are included and so are WonkyZebra's personal notes on vintage yarns plus pattern tips etc.
*Basically for American abbreviations just downsize the stitch name by one name "size". eg English DC = American SC.

WZ IS very happy to help with advice on the pattern(s) you buy; but please bear in mind they were originally written by someone else.

Adult size clothing patterns are in our main WonkyZebra shop; http://WonkyZebra.etsy.com shop..
Toy Patterns are mostly in our Toy Pattern Land shop;
http://ToyPatternLand.etsy.com shop..

Plus lots more can be seen on the WonkyZebra pinterest boards; https://uk.pinterest.com/wonkyzebra

...and any of them can be listed here for sale here if requested or purchased by number on the website.Our website is ;http://www.WonkyZebra.com

Generally patterns will be sent by email within 24 hours but usually within a couple of hours and rarely longer then 12. All emails are sent personally so if the everyone is asleep or WonkyZebra is out for the day (or evening) there maybe a little wait.

With each sale conversion information regarding vintage and current terms is included. Also a set of personal notes and images of vintage yarns are included to help identify modern substitutes.
WonkyZebra hopes you will be able to buy with confidence and that this may answer most of your questions before purchase.

WonkyZebra sells emailed high quality PDF first generation scans of original patterns currently held in a lifetime collection; some patterns are restored, some patterns are reformatted completely to present them for ease of use.
Everything sold in the shop has been read, or even made, and all the patterns are supported with guidance if required.
This is offered freely, to genuine buyers who need help to realize the lovely old patterns into beautiful wearable garments. Please be aware that vintage patterns are often written in styles unlike modern patterns, and will require careful study before use.
Where I think really necessary, I have annotated the PDF, as someone new to crocheting or knitting may find them confusing. This is why I am always happy to answer queries and have withdrawn some patterns that have proved difficult for modern craftspeople, until I have re-written them.
Please ask if you have seen patterns and can no longer find them - they can always be relisted for you.

Extra patterns are often sent in these emails as the whole point of starting WonkyZebra was to make these old patterns more widely available.
WonkyZebra would like to do this for free, but sadly even zebras have bills to pay, so the price covers costs, with a very small margin. (Not the hours of time needed to prepare and administer the shop.)

Additional policies and FAQs

Please be aware that WonkyZebra patterns are reproduced vintage patterns, while all are checked, it is possible that some instructions might be difficult to understand depending on your native language and pattern reading experience. WonkyZebra did not write the original patterns and so you may encounter an occasional construction difficultly. We will always help, but the original designer is not here with us to help.
