Baby Doll Crochet Peach Dress



My doll Lucy got a new dress. Isn't she a lucky girl?


I made this dress with one skein of Baby Bee Delight Yarn (60% acrylic, 40% polyamide) and a size F (3.75 mm) hook. 

I had just a tiny bit of the yarn left, just enough to make a simple headband.


This doll is so beautiful. I bought her a few years ago from a consignment doll shop. She is a Marie Osmond baby Ashley doll, but I named her Lucy.


Isn't she adorable? She even has a cute dimple on her chin. 


The pattern for Lucy's dress in available in my Etsy shop.

Crochet Doll Basket and SanyDoll Reborn Baby Doll Review


Disclosure: This is not a paid or sponsored review. I was not in any way compensated for writing it. I purchased the doll and I post this review because I solely want to share my own opinion. 




This little precious thing is going to be my new model for crohcet newborn and doll outfits. 

I purchased this doll through Amazon for $89.99
Quite pricey, but well worth it!

Some of the dolls there look incredibly realistic, which to me is unsettling. So I chose a doll that cannot be mistaken for a baby.

The doll measures 18 inches in length, about the size of a small newborn. 

The doll came in a lovely knitted sweater and hat outfit, cute onesie and adorable socks. It has a magnetic pasifier, a small bottle, and a cute elephant pillow. 

I was surprised how much interest my sons (who are 7 and 5) showed towards the doll. They actually like giving it its pacifier and bottle. They hold the doll very carefully and give it soft kisses. So cute!


And here is the first crochet item I made for my doll. I made this basket with super soft and chunky Bernat Baby Blanket Yarn and size K/10.5 (6.5 mm) hook. 

This basket measures 18 inches long and 11 inches wide. I don't think this is a suitable item for a real baby (perhaps only as a photography prompt), but it's perfect for a doll or perhaps a kitten. 

It's very easy and quick to crochet.

Crochet Beret Hat for my Doll


Here is my second attempt at making a beret. You can see the first one here

I'm still working on the pattern. I want to rework it for a bigger size, so it will be suitable for a girl 5-10 years old. I also have an idea for a matching scarf. 

I bought the doll shown in the pictures last year. She's so adorable, and makes a lovely model. I've been on the lookout for a new one, but couldn't find one yet. Crocheting for dolls is so much fun! It brings back childhood memories.
