Beautiful as always! I remember picking out spring Easter outfits as a child. My mom made most of them! Great outfit!

Does anyone know the yarn gauge for this pattern?

Sorry no. I don't do gauge swatches for my doll patterns. My suggestion would be to make the chain for the neck edge and see if that fits your doll.

 

In addition, I go through yarn very quickly, I also get rid of the clothing generally so I can't check. (not that I would truth be told ... I just don't see the need for items this small.

I am stuck on the sole row 1 of the shoes pattern. I get to the 5 hdc in the end ch and now I am stuck on the "hdc in 2 sc in next, 3 sc in beginning stitch" My poor tired brain is just not figuring it out. It is probably something really simple, but it is eluding me.

 

My 6 yo daughter just got her first American girl doll a couple of weeks ago, and I found this site searching for patterns. I love your designs. I have been making her a Xmas outfit from different patterns that you have posted. So far, I have made the dress with the crinoline(in white with red trim) and the santa hat from the snowy days pattern. Everything has just turned out beautiful and I have never had so much fun crocheting! EVER!!! Your doll patterns have renewed my love for crocheting. Thanks you so much.

 

Now, if I could just figure out these shoes..........

There is a comma missing after ""hdc in 2 comma sc in next"". I have fixed it in the OP. for letting me know and for your kind words.

Work extra sc in **** area if needed. Ch 1 and flip sole over.

 

What does this mean? Which area? Sorry about the questions. I just haven't done shoes before. So I'm not sure how it all works yet. They are so cute., I want to eventually make the whole outfit. I need the shoes for an outfit I'm working on.

I mistyped the word "heel" and it made a naughty word that is not allowed on the site. work extra sc in the heel area if needed.

In the jacket pattern what does "crochet in 5" mean? And if its the fifth chain from hook...how do I get back over to it? My granddaughter is thrilled over these patterns. Thank you so much. Love the purse and shoes.

[Jela Cook]

I had a question about the jacket...but me and granddaughter Susan (she wanted me to say her name) figured it out. thanks.

I wanted to let you know that my daughter got an 18" doll like this for Christmas, and I had pinned many patterns I found over December.  After she got the doll, I let her pick out what outfit she'd like me to make first, and this was the first she picked.    Thank you for this sweet pattern!

So pretty!

I would love to make this pattern for my granddaughter.

I have just one question right now though, where is it that you attach the elastic to the skirt, or am I just missing it in the pattern.

 

Thank you for your help!!

[goodtaste]

Totally cute, thanks for sharing!

the elastic is covered on row 1:

 

 

Row 1: With white, work 44 sc around waistband and join..

 

I have assumed that you can crochet over an elastic.  This may be presumptuous; if so I'm sorry.  Not everyone does that sort of thing.

This is stunning. My 3 year old has been wanting a doll such as the American Dolls (I think Walmart has some much cheaper) - She might just get one for Christmas so I can make her some clothes for it!
