Scroll down to the second set of bullets for the free PDF sewing patterns.
Today’s free pattern is for making a collared shirt, tie, and trousers/pants to fit a Spin Master Jake doll. Spin Master no longer makes the Jake doll, but collectors of Liv Dolls still own them.
This doll is highly articulated, and he has an adorable “emo” haircut!
If you would like to make his long-sleeved shirt with a collar, tie, and a pair of trousers to go with it, you’ll need some cotton/polyester-blend and/or cotton fabric and snaps, to complete the ensemble.
If you’re new to using polyester and polyester blends, you might want to read this advice from the Sewing 101 website.

- 11 3/4 inch (29.8 cm) Ever After High male dolls
- 12 inch (30 cm) Jake dolls (Spin Master)
