Catamaran PVC Pattern for 13" to 18" Dolls

3 reviews   |  

Let's have some fun on the water with ReadCreation's Catamaran PDF pattern for 13" - 18" dolls. Don't know how to sew? No problem, instructions contain sew and no sew options. When you are done playing, disassemble and store in bonus storage bag.

No doll is safe on the water without a Life Jacket from ReadCreations available in two fun sizes: for 18" dolls and 14.5" dolls.

Approximate overall dimensions of Catamaran: 34" x 17" x 32" when assembled, 34" x 9" x 3" when disassembled.

Disclaimer: Dolls should not go in the water. This Catamaran is intended for pretend play only!

This PDF pattern is designed to accommodate 13-18" dolls.
