  3. Thank you so much!

  4. Jodi Says:

    I’m confused on this pattern. I’ve just finished working the button holes and I’m trying to go to round 4. What I can’t figure out is how to get 54 sc when I only 44 and and 3 on the end of the rounds. Obviously I’m not understanding this correctly. If anyone could contact me and help out I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!!!!


  5. Jodi: you will need to increase evenly until you have 54 sc, this will create the waistline.

  7. Speckledhawk1 Says:

    This outfit would look good with a matching muff and the some ice skates! https://cobblerscabin.wordpress.com/happy-hookin/ag-ice-skates-free-pattern/

  8. Speckledhawk1 Says:

    I’m going to the store later today to get more yarn in more colors, and i will try it then, but right now, I am just going to have to be satisfied with the slippers and shoes and stuff like that!


  9. Thank you so much for your kind words! I’d love to see some pics when you finish! Have fun!


  10. LOL….there is a pattern for a muff….under AG Winter Accessories……..

  11. Speckledhawk1 Says:

    I know about the muff. but i didn’t think of using it with this before! Thx for the suggestion!

  12. Speckledhawk1 Says:

    uh… how do I post pictures? do I use tinypic or something?


  13. I usually post on Flickr…….it’s a free site………

  14. weldon berry Says:

    i love the pioneer winter outfit but i am confused on round 3 of the granny square.it states to repeat from asterisks twice and only one asterisks appears and the other question i have is the granny square square? thanks for your help martha berry


  15. *3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc in next ch 2 sp*, Thanks for the heads up on this…….The granny squares are square-ish…….the corners are “soft”, but when you sew them, there is an even number of stitches to each side………
    Carol

  16. Theresa Says:

    I am having a problem with skirt. I have finished the base stitches and have completed rnd 5, however is the skirt sew up the back because it says to turn which makes the skirt not joined. No where in the directions can I find the rnds are joined.


  17. Hi Theresa:
    The skirt is not sewn…….rnd. 5 is not joined….ch3 and turn, but it will be joined in rnd. 6-join in this rnd. LOL…..I did it this way because the doll is a smidge hippy and this makes it easier for little hands to get it on and off.
    Carol

  18. Marilyn Says:

    I love this pattern but am having trouble with the neckline on the poncho. I think I have the wrong squares sewed up.

  19. Marilyn Says:

    I did get the pattern figured out. Thank you so much.


  20. fantastic…..sorry I didn’t get bak to you sooner……

  21. Florence Says:

    On the shoes,chain 15 says slipstitch in same stitch ,how are shoes going to stay on?


  22. It forms a “circle, so that the loop becomes the shoe strap……the foot of the doll goes thru the loop and then into the shoe……

  23. Florence Says:

    ok! thanks a lot…..love your work!


  24. Thank you so much! Anytime!
