The Artistry Unveiled: Garments Fit for Tiny Royalty

Our doll was in need of more baby clothes. This outfit is crafted from soft Mandarin Petit Cotton yarn provided by Sandnesgarn. I chose white for its gentle and delicate appeal, perfect for a little baby doll. The jacket features wide edges with a double moss stitch and a comfortable wide waist, complete with a buttoned front. The accompanying pants are charmingly short and echo the jacket's double moss stitch edges. Together, they create an adorable ensemble for your doll.

Additionally, this set includes some delightful accessories. The bonnet, with its double moss stitch edges, features a practical under-chin closure that ensures a perfect fit on the doll's head. A pair of socks complements the outfit; they are snugly secured with a cord around the ankles. To complete the look, I knitted a beautiful white blanket that not only matches the outfit with its double moss stitch edges but also features a delicate eyelet pattern throughout.

Baby Doll Jacket: A Touch of Elegance

Our knitted jacket is a crowning touch in the Anne Lena collection. It is fashioned with wide edges in double moss stitch and a smoothly flowing stocking stitch that circles the waist, offering a graceful, rounded silhouette that complements any doll's wardrobe.

The front of the jacket is elegantly buttoned, creating a harmonious blend of form and function. Three strategically placed buttons add to the aesthetic while ensuring the jacket stays snug and comfy on your doll.

Stylish Pants: Perfectly Paired

The pants are a true testament to the magic of knitting, featuring shortcuts that endearingly match the jacket. The wide edges of the double moss stitch not only reinforce the design but also add a textural contrast that is visually appealing. These pants start with a playful row of eyelets, increasing in stitches accentuating the garment’s charming fit and flare.

"Together with the jacket, these pants look utterly adorable on any doll," the pattern designer notes, highlighting the cohesive look of the set. The design features an eye-catching row of eyelets at the waist, enhancing the fabric's texture and adding a playful twist to the silhouette.

Tiny legs deserve cozy comfort! The Anne Lena pants are short, sweet, and utterly adorable. Here’s what makes them special:

  • Double Moss Stitch Hems: These wide edges create a playful texture, making the pants irresistible.
  • Versatile Styling: Pair them with the jacket for an ensemble that’s as cute as a button.
