If you would like a beautiful and unique new dress for your doll, consider crocheting her a Sunrise Sunday Dress! You can also crochet a really cute Peplum style top using this pattern.
This pattern features a square neck and short sleeves. It uses a very unique style stitch that gives the dress a fun wavy texture. The dress/top is crocheted from the top down with the trim and the back closure added after the body is crocheted. You can choose to crochet either a top or a dress, written instructions are included for both. Because of the way it is crocheted it is easy to add length to the dress or top if desired. The back closure uses four ½” buttons for easy dressing. Yarn from Knit Picks was used to crochet the dress and the top.
This PDF crochet pattern is designed to fit 18 inch dolls such as American Girl®.
This is an intermediate level crochet pattern. It includes written instructions with step-by-step pictures. It also includes a summary of instructions (without pictures) to help save ink if you would like to print the pattern.
Recommended Fabrics: I would suggest using a blend of acrylic/cotton. This pattern will work using any fingering weight yarn though, as long as you check the gauge.
Supplies Needed:
-250 Yards Fingering Weight Yarn for the body of the dress
-Small amount of fingering weight yarn in a contrasting color for the waistband and optional flower.
-Crochet Hook Size: D/3 - 3.25 MM
-Sharp Needle for sewing buttons and weaving in your loose ends
-Four 1/2" buttons
-Stitch Markers (optional)
