Noel ~ A festive fur trimmed holiday coat with hood or collar option. Also part of The Christmas Collection inspired by the popular ‘White Christmas’ as depicted by Bing Crosby, I set about to fashion a holiday coat to represent this classic, timeless piece.

The pattern offers easy to read written instructions which includes the placement for the fur trim, along with a stylish hood or collar option, I made use of Bernat Pipsqueak for the fur trim and paired the coat with my chevron dress, see Cabana II

Designer’s Note:
Worked flat, back and forth in rows

Designed to fit:
American Girl Dolls, 18” Gotz Dolls like my model, Tess

Experience Level:
Beginner - Easy: Project using basic stitches, repetitive stitch patterns, simple color changes, and simple shaping and finishing.

Materials:
200 – 220 yards of medium worsted weight yarn #4 used for main color
12 yards (approx) of bulky textured yarn used for the fur accents

Notions: 3 Buttons size 3 ½” (12mm)
Darning Needle, Small Crochet Hook ~ hook used for button loops

Construction: Worked bottom up in one piece to armholes, then each section is worked individually, hood created from picked up stitches, along with a collar option worked in the same manner
