This is a fairly easy pattern to make. I used one of the speciality yarns that was fat and fluffy and a mix of several yarns. Any heavy weight yarn will work equally as well.
All ready for a party this American Girl Doll (or other like size doll) is dressed in her best dress. The dress is white size 10 crochet thread with scarlet thread sleeves and accents. I know what you're probably thinking: Thread! It'll take forever! No, it won't. I used a size E hook and the dress was fairly quick to make. With the pattern you get the instructions to make the dress, shoes, bows and tie trim that accents the front of the dress. Now all your doll needs is a party to attend. The pattern is free and found at my site: www.freepatternsdonnascrochetdesigns.com Pattern link! I hope one and all enjoy it! I'd love to see photos of anything made from one of my patterns!

This week's free pattern is a pair of PANTIES made to fit an American Girl Doll or like sized doll.
I designed these panties to actually fit the curves of the doll and as you can see by the second picture the panties didn't exactly fit around the waist.
What to do?
Add elastic of course!
I've made a photo tutorial and a video tutorial on how to add the elastic to a finished crochet item. I hope you find them helpful.
