Sewing for Dolls: Pink Sweater Set with Navy Skirt

This post may contain affiliate links, please check out my disclosures page for more info.  Thanks!

After way, way too much time away, I finely have gotten around to posting my next project.  More doll clothes!

One of my ball jointed dolls has been long overdue for a new outfit.  I had visions of pink and navy blue in my head, so I made this cute and classic set.  There’s a pink “sweater set”, a navy blue half circle skirt, and a tiny bow pin.  I wanted to add a cute beret, but my fabric choices weren’t cutting it.

Here’s the new doll outfit worn by it’s cute owner.  (By the way, the headband she is wearing is made from this tutorial.)

The sweater set was made from a pair of pink knee socks (like these).  I just made another sock sweater and whipped up a knit top to go underneath.

The top is sleeveless because this is Arizona and Summer temperatures last into “Fall”. :(

The easiest piece to make was the bow pin.  Just make a tiny bow with ribbon (here’s a video for it), then flip it over…

…And sew on a tiny gold safety pin.  Easy doll sized pin done!

The skirt is another doll sized half circle skirt, just made smaller for this 1/6 scale doll instead.  I used more of the poplin fabric leftover from other projects (a dress, a costume, a bag, and still counting).

If you’re interested in making this outfit for your own yosd sized ball jointed dolls or similar sized dolls, I whipped up a tutorial for the whole outfit with patterns for the skirt and top, instructions and other links.  You can find it here on my doll blog.

Here’s the updated list:

• 3 piece outfit
• Holder
• First aid cases
• Umbrella

Five down, just one more to go.  So close!
