Summer Time
Summer Time ~ Designed to Fit 16” fashion dolls such as Ellowyne Wilde®
~ A five piece outfit consisting of an off the shoulder full skirted lace & cable dress, bolero, wide brimmed hat, knickers & bag. The entire outfit is knitted flat using 4 ply yarn on 3mm needles. The dress has a full skirted section with a lace & cable designed worked in two bands. The dress is gathered at the waist with an off the shoulder top worked in stocking stitch & moss stitch. The edge of the skirt is finished with one row of double crochet (UK terminology) worked with a 3mm hook. The bolero is worked from the bottom in one piece up to the armholes with a moss stitch border. It is made slightly larger to accommodate the shape of the dress across the arms. The hat has a garter stitch edge and is shaped with the brim turned up to create the desired look. The knickers are worked in one piece with a ribbed band at the front and back. The bag has a moss stitch edge at the top and a garter stitch bottom section. It is knitted in one piece (aside from the handles) with very minimal sewing required to complete.
Knitted in 4 ply on 3mm needles with a 3mm crochet hook for the dress edging.

Tension: 12 sts and 16 rows on 3mm needles over stocking stitch using 4 ply yarn.
