Sweet Summer Dress for 13-inch Dolls
by Janice Helge
This pattern is available as a
free Ravelry download
This cute little dress is quick and easy to knit. It’s worked flat from the bottom up and has 2 buttons in the back.
Fits American Girl WellieWishers, Glitter Girls, Hearts for Hearts and Les Cherie’s dolls.
Martha and I worked together to get this pattern published. We found that the gauge can vary and the dress still looks darling and fits well. The two gauges we got were: 6 sts = 1 inch and 6.5 sts = 1 inch.
Since it requires only about one ounce of DK weight #3 yarn, it can be a stash buster too.
The openwork on the hem of the dress pictured on the left in the photos was done as follows:
Knit 2 rows. Next row: (K2together, yarn over) across the row. Knit 2 rows.
