Knots and Cables Dress 18" Doll Clothes Knitting Pattern

4 reviews   |  

Casual dressing is a breeze this season with Little Woolens' Knots and Cables Dress. This fashionable knit features a decorative, full-length front panel with symmetric cabling and chained knots on an all-over stockinette background. Designed to fit 18 inch soft-bodied dolls such as American Girl®, this sweater-style dress is worked from the top down and includes raglan sleeve construction, integrated buttons bands, garter collar and trims. This pattern makes use of both straight and circular knitting to eliminate bulky seaming for a sleek, contemporary look. A-line shaping with positive ease makes this a suitable knit for a variety of similarly sized dolls. It opens fully at the rear via a 5-button closure to ensure easy dressing. Falling above the knee, this garment will pair nicely with a variety of stockings and leggings. Work this dress in either of the two sleeve length options in a wool, cotton or acrylic yarn to create a pretty dress with unlimited all-season wardrobe potential.
