Kits for Kids 8 Inch Baby Doll Nightgown
Still in the middle of March as I continue to prepost but that April deadline is looming. Trying to see just what I can finish in a short period of time. What doesn't make it into this year's donation will go into 2027.
This is a simpler version of the donation I make for Aztec wishes as I know the space for this donation is more limited.
Since liquid isn't an issue for this donation I do hope to get the smaller baby bottles at Hobby Lobby before the due date. If not I will slide another out of the bigger kits as I did for the shoebox donation and plan better for 2027.
I have the snuggle sack to post and I'd like to get at least one other outfit made. The doll does come with a simple onesie so it does come dressed. I hesitate to add too much as space is an issue.
Notes:
This is from Darski's Sweetly pattern that you can find here.
The original pattern is designed for a 10" baby doll so some adaptations are required for the smaller doll.
This is made with Bernat Baby yarn.
I use a C hook for this doll.
I followed rows 1-17 then completed rows 33-37.
I finished the back and then did the ties as suggested making mine 30 chains.
I decreased the stitch count on the arms and finished with a chain 3 skip to make it more decorative.
To keep things fun I did a sc chain 3 around the neck as well. I need 3 this year so it pays to keep things fresh.
