This stylish lace bolero will be easy for your doll to shrug in and out as she makes her way around a fashionable evening party.

This is a very quick project. The bolero is crocheted in 2 stages. The jacket is worked first, and consists of a rather basic mesh of double crochets. The lace edging is what really makes this item, featuring a scalloped motif going all the way around the neck, where it acts as a collar, down the front of the bolero and down around the hem.

The bolero features raglan-style sleeves. If you like, you can add a button or snap closure to the front. I didn’t use one.
