This is a crochet pattern for the lacey tanky and shorts shown in the photo above, not the tanky and shorts themselves or the doll. The finished items fit 18” dolls. The adorable tanky has a lacey bottom and 2 button enclosures in the back so your little one can easily dress her doll. The shorts are high wasted with frilly trim around each leg.

The pattern uses a size F (3.75 mm) crochet hook, and less than one skein of worsted weight yarn. The pattern also calls for 2 buttons to sew on the back of the tanky for the back enclosure. You can also glue or sew some sort of decorative button or embellishment onto the front of the tanky. The pattern is very easy and great for beginners and more experienced crocheters alike. The pattern uses a couple of easy stitches. If you can work a chain stitch and a single crochet you can quickly and easily make this adorable outfit!
