Light and airy this outfit is a perfect choice for any occasion your doll may encounter.
If worked in mohair like yarn it is gentle and wispy, light as a summer breeze. If made in cotton it will look like a favorite summer dress, colorful and flirty.
Plisse outfit (plisse meaning narrow pleats)consists of a skirt with knitted folds and a sleeveless top with lace detail and bateau (boat) neckline. The top can be worked two ways depending on the look you want to have. Playing with the length of lace detail and finishing of shoulder seams you can make two differently looking tops from one pattern.

Very easy pattern with no shaping.
