This simple lace top is a great summery choice, with a lacy skirt & eyelets at the waistline and edging the bodice. If you’ve never had experience knitting lace, this is a good first project. You will quickly recognize & even memorize the simple repeated pattern, which creates the “vine lace” design.

You can choose to finish the top with crocheted ties or shoulder straps, and for variety, weave satin ribbon through the eyelets of the top and finish with a bow.

The items may fit a variety of 14 inch dolls, but they are specifically fitted to Helen Kish’s 14” Chrysalis dolls like Lark, Song, Piper, and Wren.
