I’m so excited to bring you my first ever crochet design!
This little sweater is designed to fit the 38cm Miniland and 34cm Minikane Dolls. It has a simple design for a classic look, or you can add your own flair by doing contrast ribbing or using striped yarn. You only need about 100 metres of 8ply/DK weight yarn, so it’s perfect for using up those leftovers from previous projects!
