Upside down Knitting,Quick knits on straight needlesDolls ClothesTo fit43 - 46cm DollsI created these garments to fit the 46cm/18 inch Our Generation Dolls, and similar sized dolls. They have been created to enable the knitter to use their scraps of 8 ply yarn that they have left over from other projects. Of course, you are also able to buy a ball of 8 ply yarn to make them. On average I get two and sometimes three garments out of a 100g ball of yarn. It is fun to put together an outfit in the colours you like. Children love these garments and I have done my best to make them as play friendly as possible. In other words, it is easy for the little ones and the older children to dress and then undress their dolls. The most exceptional thing about these patterns is the fact that they are knitted on two needles, NO knitting in the round at all. I do not like knitting in the round be it on four needles or any other method. These patterns are worked from the neck down, I have used short rows to shape the garment where it is needed. I am sure that you will enjoy knitting these garments, and have fun doing so.
