Downloading a pattern is frustrating.
February 1, 2013 at 5:46 pm
I’m so sorry you’re having a problem. I sent you an email.
April 2, 2013 at 2:13 pm
On rnd 20 (armhole) sc in first 28 sc, skip next 42 sc?
Do you finish off? An fasten back on? Or slip stitch thru 42 sc? I got lost at this point
Thank you
April 2, 2013 at 5:51 pm
Hi Diane:
You don’t fasten off and you don’t use slip stitch. You actually skip right over the 42 stitches and then start to
work a sc in the very next sc after the skip and the next 49 sc. Then you skip the next 42 sc again….this is the circle for the 2nd armhole……then sc in the last 28 sc across…… You will actually have 84 less sc at the end of the rnd. I hope this helps. Feel free to contact me anytime if you have any questions.

Hello ive started this outfit and its running a bit small for the doll ive got can i please have the measurements for the doll you’ve used if its not to much trouble. I’m in the uk and I’ve had this happen a few times I’m not sure if the doll is a different size. I am also new to crocheting is a size 1 a 2mm crochet hook? Thanks
February 1, 2017 at 8:44 am
the measurements are below. The size hook you are using is a bit small. A #1 Steel Crochet hook is 2.75mm…..a regular C/2/2.75mm hook will also work.
