I picked up three fashion doll fairy tale outfits from Mel Garcia Tello last year and only ended up making the Red Riding Hood outfit for Skipper. This year with a fairy tale theme forming across the doll donation I decided it would be good to tackle the set. You can purchase this outfit here on Ravelry.
I had hoped I had both colors in Knit Picks Palette but ended up using Bernat Baby Sport which is a heavier yarn for the contrast on the top and bottom. I'd like to make this outfit for Skipper and am looking into getting the two colors I need from Knit Picks prior to making.
Notes:
The bodice required a C hook and I used a D hook for the skirt. I'd consider using a C hook for both in the future.
Note to self do not add closing snap until finishing upper part of dress. I did use a snap rather than velcro. I've never liked velcro and yarn. I needed a mini button for the top.
I love the color you chose. It turned out very pretty :) Thank you for sharing with us at The Crazy Little Lovebirds link party.
