After some seeing some people were interested in free crochet barbie clothes, I set out to make a few available. This is the third one.
This pattern is worked from the top down, and it is this method that allows for many options. Once you get to row 7, you can stop after any row. I have suggested 4 stopping points for different top lengths and 4 stopping points for dress lengths.
These tops and dress use 1-2 snap fasteners in the back. Larger views of the tops and dresses are pictured below as the pattern progresses.
For this pattern, you will need to know how to single, half double, double and treble crochet, and how to chain. You should also know how to increase and decrease stitches.
