Barbie Ghost Costume Crochet
I was working on afghans before I got sick. I have changed the direction of the afghans, but I need to order more yarn to continue. While I am waiting, I decided I would work on some holiday projects.
The first Barbie Halloween costume is finished. This ghost costume was made from a free pattern. I chose not to add the grey used in the original as it looked a little zombie like to me. The pattern does remind me a bit of the old Scooby Doo cartoons. I tried the helmet on Kelly and think I can extend the helmet to create a ghost outfit for Kelly. There is a matching free Ken ghost crochet pattern. I may try that one too.
I must add the helmet does look a bit like the Star Wars Trooper helmet. Perhaps there is a Star Wars adaptation in the future.
I used Caron's One Pound Yarn with an e hook for this project.

Barbie Witch Knitted
I cannot claim credit for this beauty. Mom made this costume for a relative on my husband's side of the family to share. The free pattern is available at Knitting on the Net. I found this pattern early on in my research. It convinced me I had to convert Mom to making doll's clothes. At that time, I could neither knit nor crochet and I wanted my nieces to have access to the wonderful doll's clothes I was finding patterns for on the Internet. Well my crocheting skills have progressed to the point I can make Barbie clothes, but Mom is still the only one producing knit clothes for the dolls in our family. I do not see that changing any time in the near future.
Barbie’s outfit will be leaving for her new home soon. I was fortunate to have the chance to take a picture using my dress model before the outfit left. I have some other great stuff Mom sent me for to give for birthday and Christmas gifts. I will photograph and share these outfits too before sending them off as well. She has expanded into sewing dolls clothes as well as knitting. I cannot wait to show off the items.
I am still waiting on my yarn shipment from JoAnn's to get started on my first doll project in ages. I have two Pilgrim outfits to make and ship before Thanksgiving. I needed lighter weight yarn, as the first outfit I made was a bit bulky.
It is not too late for those of you who want to make doll Halloween costumes. I have free patterns available on the Halloween page. Those who crochet are in luck. There are several free crochet patterns for Barbie, Ken, and even Kelly available on the Internet. I located three American Girl free crochet Halloween Patterns. I apologize to the knitters this is the only free Barbie Halloween pattern I have discovered. I have no Halloween patterns for the American Girl Dolls. I will update the Halloween page as soon as I find any to add.
