I don’t know what the weather is like where you live but its cold up here in the North of England. Time for some warm pyjamas or as most people call then these days lounge sets. This gave me the idea of making this cute little set for Barbie. It will fit most fashion dolls and Barbie Fashionistas. But as Curvy barbie is a more realistic shape, I’ve adjusted the pattern to fit.
I used Sirdar 4ply and Sirdar crofter 4ply which has a nice fair isle effect.
These pyjamas can be knit using any combination of colours with or without the heart motif. For the pink set I knit the ribs of the pants in pink then the legs in multi coloured yarn. The top was knit in pink, with heart. The white/multi set has white for the ribs and multi for pants and top. I added a small back raglan opening for ease of fit.
you will need: 25g each main and contrast 4ply yarn (I used Sirdar crofter for the multi yarn and Sirdar snuggly for plain. Needles size 3mm and 3.25, 1 small button
