Fashion Doll Vest ~ Vest for Ken

April 11, 2014 · Rhelena · 7 Comments

Free Crochet Pattern

This is my first crochet pattern for this doll. It is an easy vest that can be crocheted up in less than an hour. The pattern is suitable for beginners as it uses very simple stitches, such as the single crochet (sc) and chains (ch/chs). It also uses the foundation single crochet (fsc), which is also fairly easy to do.

You can pair this with this barbie baseball cap, which is available in two sizes, one for Ken and one for Barbie.

    You have a great variety of really nice patterns. It’s just too bad your site is so cluttered with annoying ads.

    For row 2:
    Do you chain 1 before you turn, it just says turn.
    Also, if you are making single crochets all the way across, how are there 15 sts?

      You can chain 1 and turn, or turn and chain 1, whichever is easiest for you. It’s easier for me to write the pattern instructing to ch 1 after the turn has been made, but most people chain 1 and then turn. :)
