Fall, my favorite and most inspirational time of the year prompted Color Me Fall ~ a re-worked sweater dress pattern based on my original design Ayanna, but worked to include raglan sleeve construction and in light weight yarns. Featuring an easy to achieve faux fair isle stitch pattern that makes use of slipped stitches for the look of stranded color-work

Designed to fit: Slim all vinyl Götz dolls like the Classic / Happy Kidz & Hannah type

#See Fall Back ~ an American Girl Doll version!!

Styling: Pair with your doll’s favorite hat/beret for a complete look (beret not included)

Pattern Features: The faux fair isle stitch pattern works up as a dense fabric and is achieved with the use of slipped stitches, thereby avoiding the traditional stranded color work, written out with line-by-line instructions given. Color-block raglan sleeves worked together with main body of sweater dress in one piece to ribbed stitched mock turtle-neckline

Construction: Worked flat; back and forth in rows. Pattern begins with sleeves worked first from cuffs to armholes that are later joined to main body, (worked from bottom in one piece to armholes) for raglan shaping then worked together in one piece to neckline, includes back button closure with buttonhole placement. Sleeves seamed at completion

Skill Level: Project uses simple color changes and minimal shaping and finishing

Knitting Needles: Pair 3.5mm (USA 4) throughout (note switch to 3.25mm if substituting to DK weight yarns)

Materials: 160 – 165 yards (30-34 grams) Fine # 1 weight or 4ply equivalent (yardage includes contrast used for color-work), or switch to DK weight yarns and use smaller sized needles

Gauge: Using 3.5mm needles: 8sts and 8 rows in 1 inch over stockinette stitch based on materials used

Materials Used: Palette ™ by Knit Picks in Turmeric (main color), Autumn Heather (contrast A) and Doe (contrast B) color-ways
