American Girl Hearts and Flowers


This was another project I finished but never got posted. It is the Valentine's dress for the 2nd 18 inch donation doll. This is another free pattern that can be found here. I would like to thank the designer Darski who has been a dear friend and amazing contributor to this donation for several years. Her patterns continue to inspire me every year. The shoes are not part of this pattern but they are available in another free pattern here.

I print a number of free patterns every year and I buy or am gifted a number of new patterns each year. One of the fun parts of this donation is to flip through the books and find something to try that I haven't either made before or to revisit a pattern I've not made in a while.

This pattern was such a cute fun pattern and it met goal of a second Valentine's pattern and the chance to visit a pattern I hadn't previously added to my donation project.

American Girl Valentine's Outfit


I discovered Tara Cousin's Heart Tee and Skirt Outfit last year and decided it would be my Valentine's holiday outfit. You can purchase the outfit pattern here.

I've made peace this year with the idea that I have to play with gauge. I had to use an I hook to make the outfit fit and use up my friend's yarn on this outfit. With anything smaller the sweater was just too tight. I pulled out my first attempt prior to starting the blankets after using the suggested hook and decided to try the I hook after finishing up the doll blankets.

After finishing this project I've decided to tackle an Easter dress I've never completed. I've already pulled it out once when I realized I'd confused two of the shells. One shell has three stitches the other five. It makes a much smaller skirt when you only use three stitches. However, I'm back on track again and working to see how if I can make it work this year.

American Girl Valentine's Sweater


I love adding holiday outfits to my doll donations. I'm not sure if the kids love them as much as I do, but since I'm the one doing all the crocheting I like giving myself some projects I enjoy, too.

Valentine's Day has always been a challenge for me as I didn't have anything specific for it. However, when I bought the Tara Cousin's set, it had a heart sweater that was perfect for my project. You can purchase the pattern here.

While this outfit required buttons, I was glad because it had a better fit to it. The heart pattern while charted was easy enough to follow. I changed it to more seasonal colors and I really liked the way it came out. One more holiday outfit finished.
