Thread: Use Knit-Cro-Sheen in a triple strand or Speed Cro-Sheen in a single strand for the garments; use Six Strand Floss for the trim.

The pattern calls for 1 ball of either the Knit-Cro-Sheen or Speed Cro-Sheen, but you will not be able to make this outfit out of one of the 150-yd balls of Knit-Cro-Sheen that is sold today. (They used to contain more yardage.) As a rough guide, one ball will make the skirt and all of the jacket except the hood.

Additional Materials: 6 small buttons, 1 snap

The collar of the jacket buttons into a hood, and has a crocheted edging. The skirt fastens with a snap.

The pattern says this is for an 11-inch doll, but it does fit an 11.5” Barbie-type doll with the 1960s figure: 5.5”/3.125”/5”. Check the fit as you go for other varieties of doll.
