Lacy dress

This cute dress is modelled by Isabelle Faye, pattern purchased from ToysWereUsPatterns on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/268143317/vintage-crochet-pattern-pdf-baby-dolls?ref=yr_purchases It was made using a 4mm hook and DK yarn (Hobbycraft Women's Institute),
I haven't yet tried making the pants.

Lilac and white tracksuit

This cute tracksuit is also designed for the original 1985 dolls. It is modelled by new doll Isabelle Faye (unknown real name as I bought her second hand without the name certificate). She is one of the 'poodle headed' dolls with wheat coloured hair. The tracksuit was from a pattern sold by Smalls and Dolls Wear on Etsy  https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/639321419/vintage-crochet-patterns-15-16-18-inch?ga_search_query=cabbage%2Bpatch&ref=shop_items_search_3&pro=1
use the pattern labelled 'David' (originally for a boy doll but unisex really).
I used caron simply soft (aran) yarns and a 4mm hook to meet the gauge (tension).
I will be making more items from this pattern in the near future.

Cute dress

This first pattern fits the original (1985) Cabbage Patch Kids range dolls. It is from a pattern for the Sarah Lavender dress purchased from Smalls and Dolls wear store on Etsy https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/639321419/vintage-crochet-patterns-15-16-18-inch?ref=yr_purchases

This download contains a wide variety of outfits, some of which I will try out.

I used a 4mm hook and aran weight yarn (hayfield brand) in a mustard colour. The dress is modelled by Cabbage Patch doll Lynette Chelsea (original name) who I have had since I was a child. The shoes came up a bit big so I threaded through some wool, pulled tight and made a bow.

Welcome to Cabbage Patch Kids Crochet

I am going to be trying out existing and new patterns on the new 15 inch cabbage patch kids as well as the original 1985 kid dolls.
Here is Caitlin Niamh (nee Zelda Addie!), a new 15 inch doll. She is so cute. Many of the original patterns will be too big so will need adaption for her. Watch this space!
