The Pretty in Pink crochet pattern is finally here!
I still have some things to do before the video tutorials will be ready, but I decided that I would add them in later... Update: Video Tutorial is Live! This free crochet pattern has everything you need to crochet serval sweet outfits for children fashion dolls like Kelly in no time at all. Plus, since the Chelsea doll is only a little bit taller than Kelly, all you have to do is increase the lengths (how many rows you do) of the tops, dresses, etc., and you'll have pretty outfits for her too! The following directions include instructions on how to crochet dressy dresses, simple dresses, dressy skirts, simple skirts and pants. Both kinds of dresses have a couple top variations, plus several dress lengths. Both kinds of skirts also have several lengths, and the pants have capri and shorts variations. A PDF Version of this pattern is available, and you can add this to your ravelry queues and favourites here or below too...

ch - chain
sl st - slip stitch sc - single crochet hdc - half double crochet dc - double crochet scinc - single crochet increase (a.k.a. single crochet 2 in next st) sc2tog - do a sc into FL of next 2 sts. - see this video tutorial st(s) - stitch(es) sp - space RS - right side WS - wrong side lp(s) - loop(s) FL - front loop (closest to you) yo - yarn over sk - skip tog - together rep - repeat rem - remaining cont. - continue f/o - fasten off picot - sc, ch 3, then insert your hook into the v of last sc and down the front of that st, yo, pull all the way though. see 1st example in this video tutorial by Moogly (3 / 5 / 7 / 9 / 11) shell - Do 3 (or number called for) dc into 1 st sp. - Eg. 3 shell = 3 dc into 1 st, or 5 shell = 5 dc in 1 st, and so on... Pattern Notes:
Odd rows = Right Side of work.
For all shell rows, each sc will be worked into the sc st from the row before it, and each shell will be worked into the center dc from the shell in the row before it. All other sts between those, will be skipped. For the dressy variations, alternate shells will get bigger with each row, whereas for the simple variations and the pants, the shells will stay the same. Ignore the 2 sl sts at the end of a round when starting the next one. Fits the 4" tall Kelly Dolls by Mattel. Return to Table of Contents Dressy Top & Dress Crochet Instructions:
