Seasonal Hand Knitted Designs for 18” Dolls 16 hand knitted pattern designs in a five collection volume that is suitable for both the beginner and seasoned knitter, created not only for your doll's seasonal wardrobe, but for you, the knitter, in celebration in the art of knitting, and in honor of my Mom, Brenda, who taught me the art of knitting at a young age. This Fall/Winter Collection has been fashioned to coordinate with each other for complete ensembles, from the versatile options found in the Sienna Collection, along with the trendy jacket set of the Sinclair Collection (cover), to the stylish essentials offered in the Pemberton Collection and the traditional Gansey inspired sweater set of the Archipelago Collection, finishing with timeless classics found in the Christmas Collection, each design is worked with your doll's ease of dressing in mind. ~ Debonair Designs Designed to fit: American Girl Dolls & the comparable 18” Gotz Dolls,sized for 18” dolls that share the same body type. I just wanted to tell you that I have been having so much fun knitting your patterns. Your instructions are so easy to follow and the designs are ADORABLE. I haven't found any cuter patterns than yours. I've also learned so much by knitting them. I've gone from an advanced-beginner to an intermediate knitter. This is going to be a wonderful book! Many of my favorite patterns of yours are in there! Can't wait to see it in bookstores. Congrats on putting this together! ~ Sophie Regarding the yarns used throughout my book(s). Please refer to the section Standard Abbreviations found on page 8: "#4 Worsted/10ply yarn similar to or like Red Heart Soft Solids, Caron Simply Soft, Premier Everyday Worsted, Patons Classic Worsted.

I hope you have as much fun with this pattern collection as I did creating it." ~ Deb Text and knitwear designs copyright © 2013 Debonair Designs All rights reserved.
