Open-Front Cardigan Upcycle 18" Doll Clothes Pattern

1 review   |  

Got a sweater that is looking for some new life? Use it to make this cozy little cardigan for your 18” doll! It features a simple open-front with a shawl collar. The seamless ribbing at the waistline and wrists are scaled to doll-size by trimming the ribbing from the original sweater from the bottom. This is a quick sew and a really satisfying use of an old sweater.

This PDF sewing pattern by Thimbles and Acorns is designed to fit 18" dolls such as American Girl®.

Love the added embroidered detail on the blue sweater? Follow along in the full sew-along tutorial in Sewing With Cinnamon & Friends Sewing Holiday Traditions video with Shari Fuller! The Itty Bitty Snowflake buttons are featured in this embellishment.
