Yarn: The pattern calls for “Nylon yarn.” No yardage is given.

This is a unisex pattern with a boy’s size and a girl’s size. Whether it is a shirt or a dress is determined by the number of stripes worked.

The garment is worked in one piece from bottom edge to bottom edge, casting on and binding off to form the sleeves. The front and back are identical. It is seamed up the sides.

Sized for a Barbie-type or Ken-type doll with the 1960s figure (in inches): Girl: 5.5 - 3.125 - 5, Boy: 6.25 - 4.5 - 5.125 . The fit may vary on modern dolls.
