(This pattern fits 17" - 18" dolls like American Girl doll, Baby born and Alexander doll)
For very long I have had this coral red yarn here. I could not think of for what to use it. However, one day I found it and started to knit a suit for my doll Vanja. I am sure you have realized already that I like to knit small plaits for the doll clothes. This time I knitted ...
... plaits along the legs of the suit and as I knitted the legs, I thought that this could be fine. This suit is a little wide back. In front, I have decreased it at the center and knitted a plait pattern for the center front. Back it is open along the edge sts and buttoned at the top with a button.

Then Vanja needed some accessories. I thought grey ...

Socks knitted in grey rib with a coral red edge I also knitted to this garment.
A lovely dressed doll in this garment I think!
I hope you to like the clothes and want to knit them for your doll.
