These charming sailor suits are made just for Betsy and Ben dolls—perfect for setting sail on new adventures, or simply looking their best.

Each outfit features a classic sailor collar and cheerful stripes along the edges—details that add a lovely, nostalgic touch.

Betsy wears a crisp white dress with a blue sailor collar and trim, while Ben looks dapper in his white sailor top with blue collar and trim, and smart blue trousers with white edging.

With straightforward shaping and seaming, you’ll have these little outfits finished in just an evening or two—ready for playtime or gifting.

All the clothes are knitted flat from the top down, with an easy single-button closure at the back—just right for little hands to manage.

This pattern is for the clothes only- Betsy and Ben doll knitting pattern is available separately.
