This is my crochet creation for Christmas 2017.
The dress fits a 29 cm 11 ½ inch Barbie (new model); it is worked back and forth until the hips of the doll (turning the work at the end of each row) then it is worked in round.
The hat is worked in round, from bottom to top, it measures fit about 11 cm 4,33 inches circumference.
The belt is worked back and forth and the buckle is embroidered with the Lurex thread.
