Victorian Garden Party Frock for 18" Dolls
Doll ensemble designed to fit American Girl Dolls, Springfield Dolls, and dolls of similar 18” size. Take a step back in time when you create this delightful design reminiscent of years gone by. Includes instructions to make this darling outfit which includes dress, hat and high top boots.
Dress is made from worsted weight yarn. Then the overlays and skirt flounces are made from size 10 crochet cotton which gives them a delicate look. The hat is made from Luster Sheen or you can substitute a size 3 cabled cotton (such as Fashion 3) or a thin sport weight yarn with the hat band trim made from size 10 thread. The high top boots are made from two shades of size 10 thread with gold beads as button closures.
This pattern is available with two others in an ebooklet titled “Victorian Wardrobe for 18” Dolls” which is available as a download or printed booklet on my website, www.shadylane.com
