As promised months ago, here is my pattern for a miniature knitted pencil dress, designed for both Petite Blythe dolls, Dollcenas and Little Pullips.

The pink mini pencil dress, worn by the Little Pullip doll required less than 2 grams of yarn. I used Araucania Botany lace, which is a 4 ply fingering weight sock yarn, but any sock yarn with similar attributes will be suitable for this pattern. The construction of the dress allows you to easily adjust the design when fitting the dress on your doll whilst knitting.

Knitted seamlessly in the round from the bottom up, the pencil dress is secured at the back of the doll’s neck with the help of two i-cords.

The simple design can be customised by adjusting both the length of the dress itself and the length of the i-cords.
