Let’s make capris and a turtle neck for Barbie with today’s free patterns @ ChellyWood.com #FreePatterns for #BarbieDollClothes

The image shows a Made-to-Move Barbie dressed like Audrey Hepburn from the early 1960's. She wears a black turtleneck with black capri pants and black plastic flats. She's seated on a tiny 1:6 scale folding chair. One arm is slung over the back of the chair, and the other arm is extended for balance. She is lifting one of her feet high into the air in front of her, while the other leg is bent with her toes just resting on a concrete floor. The wall behind her is white, creating a sharp contrast to the black clothing and silver chair. If you'd like to make this outfit, click on the link provided in the caption.

Yes, this is a revision of an older blog post, but in addition to converting the patterns from JPG images to PDF downloadable patterns, I wanted to update the video tutorial for the capri pants too. This has been on my to-do list for a while.

You may notice that the turtleneck can fit a male or female doll. It sounds crazy, but it’s true! I recommend using a stretchy fabric like jersey fabric or stretchy sweater fabric for this project, so the shirt will fit both 11 inch and 12 inch dolls. The capris will only fit 11 inch or 11 and a half inch female dolls though.

Cotton or cotton blend fabric is fine for the capris, but jersey fabric also looks nice with this pattern. The links I’m offering in this paragraph go to fabric remnant sales on Etsy. If you want to buy smaller swatches of fabric for doll clothes, I recommend buying remnants because it can really save you money.

Just be careful that you’re not getting a “mixed bag” of remnants. Contact the seller before purchasing or read the fine print to make sure you know what you’re getting. As I have said in my video on buying doll clothes fabrics, big fat prints don’t look good on small dolls…

In the process of making this outfit, you may need a few things, and if you make a purchase using my affiliate marketing links, it actually helps me pay for the web hosting service I use and my tutorial softward licenses. So please consider these options for your snaps and elastic:

I recommend Dritz size 2/0 sew-on snaps. With this link, you can buy 10 Dritz size 2/0 sew-on snaps on Amazon.

I also recommend the 1/8 inch white knit elastic sold by PensPins on Etsy, which works great for dolls this size. I usually buy about a yard at a time, and that can make dozens of doll skirts and pants.

Today’s patterns will fit these dolls:
