Hello! I absolutely love this pattern and am hoping to make a couple of these for my girls for Christmas. :) I have a question though... on the robe on row 2 it has *2dc, (dc in 2dc,2dc in next dc) 4 times*. I'm having a hard time trying to figure that out. Do you mean that I should 2dc in the sixth stitch then dc in the 7th and 2 dc in the 8th or 9th... and then do that 4 more times?
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for posting this pattern . :)

Hi all,
ReplyDeleteWow! The doll clothes are looking so stylish.
18 Doll Clothes
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful pattern. It is just perfect for my granddaughters' 18" dolls!
ReplyDeleteI love this pattern so far. I have completed the body and right back, but I had a question about the front. Does it attach right to the row 21 of the body or do you make it on its own and then sew it together?
ReplyDeleteIf it attaches to row 21 of the body then where do you attach it? Thanks for your help with this very pretty pattern!
Thank you for this pattern. I needed a swimsuit cover-up to make for the granddaughters bathing suits I just made and the jacket on this will be the perfect addition. Thanks again.
ReplyDeletePlease help, I'm stuck on row 2 of the robe, just can't get it right.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo x
Hi Jo Miah.
ReplyDeleteCan you email me at bizzycrochet (at) hotmail (dot) com? It is easier to work through pattern problems that way.
Thanks

Then dc in the next 14dc, then repeat the stitches that fall between the asterisks * one more time starting with 2dc in the first stitch and repeating the series of stitches in the parentheses 4 times. Then finish by putting a dc in the last 6dc.
ReplyDeleteThis does not make sense. "Row 29- ch1, turn, sc in 5 sc, leave rem 3 sc undone. (5)"
ReplyDeleteWhere do you line up the remained three single crochets when you stitch the Shoulders and form the arm holes?
They won't line up anywhere. If you look at the picture of the back of the nightgown, the rem three will create the corner where you attach the button.
DeleteLoving this, but I'm stuck after row 33, it says wrong side facing, and attach with a slip knot.....where do I attach after doing th Right back? At the original seam?
ReplyDeleteThanks bunches!

ReplyDeleteWhen you refer to the wrong side, what exactly do you mean? I just finished row 33. If I hold the garment in front of me, do I skip 5 stitches starting at the round seem, or Five stitches from where I began the right back?
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your patterns for free and for your help.
The wrong side would be the interior of the dress. So you would count 5 stitches from where you ended the back row.
DeleteThank you. I just reread my question and I am embarrassed that I spelled seam, seem. Guess it is always best to proofread before sending. :-)
ReplyDeleteI have finished the nightie, but it looks very small around the neckline. I don't actually have a doll to try it on as it is meant for a gift. Crossing my fingers that I've done it correctly and it fits. Thanks again for your help.
Can't wait to start! 6 week camping trip, hoping to get two sets done using variegated colors. Don't like to change colors! TY for sharing! Grammy D
