Today’s pattern is one that I’ve had available on this website for quite some time, but only recently I realized it wasn’t available as a PDF for easy download. So today’s blog post will sufficiently convert that older pattern to PDF for your convenience.
As you can see in the images above and below, this raglan-sleeved T-shirt will fit articulated Ken (above) as well as a regular Ken or Ryan doll (shown just below).

You may wonder what “articulated” means. An articulated Ken doll can bend in various places, like the wrist, the elbow, the shoulder, the hip, the knee, and sometimes even the ankle.
It can be a lot of fun to pose and photograph an articulated doll like this!

So if you are interested in purchasing an articulated Ken doll, just click on any of the associated links in this blog post. Your purchase will add a few more pennies to my pocketbook, which helps me pay for costs associated with running this free sewing pattern website!
For today’s raglan-sleeved T-shirt, you may want to buy some jersey fabric, and to make the Jeans, you’ll need some lightweight stretch denim along with a little bit of 1/4 inch elastic for the waistband.
Today’s free printable PDF patterns will fit the following dolls or action figures:
- 12 inch (30 cm) Ken dolls (modern)
- 12 inch (30 cm) Articulated Ken dolls
- 12 inch (30 cm) Regular Fashionista Ken dolls
