I feel very fortunate to have found a copy of the out of print newsprint Baby Doll Fashion's to Crochet by Margaret Funk. They've been several patterns that have expanded the donation wardrobe for the 16 inch Baby Dolls.
Notes:
This dress pattern is from that book. The shoes are from Darski's free Peachy Keen pattern found here. The headband was made chaining the distance around the doll's head and doing a row of dc. I tried experimenting with other options but it was all too bulky.
This is made with Lion Brand Ice Cream Yarn Grape and an I hook for the dress and the headband. The shoes require a J hook with the lighter yarn.
I finished the back and and the front with sc adding a snap to close. I also finished the arm holes with sc to make them a little smoother.
My plan is to make a second A-line dress for the second 16 inch baby donation doll soon. I made this dress previously in solid colors I like the striped yarns better.
