This nicely fitted little cardigan is knitted in one piece, top down with a minimum of seaming. It was designed especially to fit tiny rag dolls made from Ann Wood’s pattern, but it will also fit other similarly sized dolls.

The cardigan is knitted in lace weight yarn, but you can use fingering weight yarn instead for a slightly looser fit. You just need 13-15 yards, so this is a good use for those little balls you’ve probably been collecting.

I put the gauge in, but I wouldn’t worry too much about it. At this size it’s easier to just start and see if it will fit your doll rather than knit a gauge square.

This pattern is free, but if you want to say “thank you”, please create a project page here on Ravelry.
