Fashion doll bed doll

[brendaKbrown]

I have made this doll for our local Christmas House boutique. All benefits help the hospital. There is no picture as I am blind. So, if anyone makes it, feel free to post a picture. Feel free to use this pattern, but PLEASE do not take credit for my work!

 

As noted in the pattern, either Caron simply Soft or sport weight yarn can be used or combined. The bodice has a some what snug fit and fits Barbie's bustline quite well. The skirt flares out and is long, just like the bigger bed doll patterns.
