Long/Short Petticoats & Crinolines for 18” Dolls features patterns for Long Petticoat & Ruffled Crinoline, and just above-the-knee Half Slip & Crinoline. Though sized to fit an 18” stuffed-body little girl doll, the easily adjustable lengths and drawstring waist will also accomodate a variety of body sizes and types, including modern vinyls and many antiques.

The long version measures 8.5” in length, excluding waistband; the short version measures approx. 5” in length, excluding waistband, and comes just above the knee. These petticoats / underskirts are crocheted using size 10 crochet cotton, and trimmed with satin ribbon.

Worked in various colors, these patterns would also make simple but elegant full skirts.

Long Petticoat for 18” Dolls was the 17 January feature in the “2008 Crochet Pattern A Day Calendar” and the Long Crinoline Petticoat appeared in the November/ December issue of Doll Castle News.

This pattern set is available as an electronic download, but if you prefer, a printed version is available exclusively from http://www.treasuredheirloomscrochet.com/e-dollslip.html
