Springfield Doll Hooded Sweatshirt and Shorts


Along with dresses and other pretty outfits, I wanted to make sure the donation doll had some comfortable casual clothes. I spent plenty of summers with the combination of shorts and a hooded sweatshirt to deal with that unpredictable New England weather. We always had an extra sweatshirt because while the summer weather could be hot, many of our destinations had a cooler side that required a little extra warmth. That inspired my thinking behind this pairing of patterns.


The hooded sweatshirt pattern comes from Sweater Trio, booklet FCM494. The shorts are shortened versions of the pants found in Maggie’s Crochet Abby, Allie, and Annie Pattern.

I am working on a different pattern for a nightgown that comes with a robe. I hope to finish the first one I started, as it looks like I will have two dolls when I am finished with this project.

Bailey your blog has lots of great information! Thanks for stopping to visit me at Crochet Nirvana. I'm new to crochetville and I'm just starting to find my way around. Funny that you're from New England - I'm in north central MA!! Any tips for Crochetville? Do you use Ravelry? I do and have a great time in several groups there. I'm RobinBrz there too!
