All girls love to play daughter-mother when they are children. And, of course, they love to make a variety of clothes for their doll children. This activity develops their creative skills and teaches them handicraft skills.
A beautiful doll becomes a wonderful training model for a growing master. This is the best option for expressing creative impulses and experimenting with style trends in clothing. It's best to start with items that are easier to make, such as a skirt.
How to knit a skirt for a doll
When making a beautiful thing for your toy, a little designer should immediately decide on the following parameters.
- Model. This can be a straight pencil skirt or a fluffy variation of a circle skirt.
- Length products. This means compliance with the standards: midi, maxi and mini options.
- Tool selection. The thing can be made using a hook or knitting needles. They can be made of various materials: metal, bone, wood or plastic.
- Material selection. Leftover unused yarn is great for doll clothes.
Advice. For fabric made with knitting needles, it is better to use a thicker fiber, and for a hook, use a thin thread.
Straight skirt
The easiest way to knit a straight fabric for a toy is with an elastic band pattern.
This embodiment has a medium length and in addition to the 2x2 elastic pattern contains an additional “Simple Braid” pattern.
Scheme
At the top there is a small hem with stitching. A crocheted cord is inserted into this hole. It serves as a tie.
Pleated skirt
A more difficult variation to execute would be a pleated skirt.
To do this, just use the method below.
