Fall Back
’Fall Back’ an American Girl Doll version of Color Me Fall, a faux fair isle Sweater Dress complete with Beret. Fall, my favorite and most inspirational time of the year prompted me to fall back to a favorite stitch pattern Faux Fair Isle, by revisiting Ayanna, and working it in light weight yarns along with flattering raglan sleeves
#See Color Me Fall ~ designed for the slim all vinyl bodied dolls
The faux fair isle stitch pattern may have the look of stranded color-work, but achieved using an easy to follow slip stitch method with only one color used per row, with the exception of keeping the main color worked for full back button closure
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
Skill Level: Easy - Intermediate: Project uses simple color changes and minimal shaping and finishing
Knitting Needles: Pair 3.5mm (USA 4) throughout
Materials: 160 – 180 yards (35-40 grams) Fine # 1 weight or 4ply equivalent (yardage includes contrast used for color-work)
Gauge: Using 3.5mm needles: 8sts and 9 rows in 1 inch over seed stitch ribbing unstretched based on materials used
