This gown and hat will fit a 2 inch porcelain dollshouse baby doll. The gown has been designed with a back opening so that it can be removed from the doll.

The front and back are made separately then sewn together at the shoulder with the sleeve, neck and back opening edges added afterwards.

There are many ways to add the 11/0 seed beads to miniature knitting but I have found most of them don’t keep the tiny bead sitting on the front of the piece. An explanation of my method is included in the pattern.

The little hat has a simple knitted lacy edging as well as the beads.

This is a lovely, simple gown that looks very understated when made with white beads on white thread and especially charming with cream beads on an ecru thread. It also looks stunning when made in silk thread.
