Things are definitely picking up the pace here. Now prepare yourselves for another addition to the store…. Crochet dresses for mini dolls!
The dresses here are now available on the Products For Sale page, under Mini Doll clothing. Huzzah! 🙂
These dresses can be purchased as one piece, for now. I plan on adding a matching hat and/or bag to complete the outfit (shoes are too small to make at the moment), and there will be an extra option to purchase all pieces as a complete set. Each piece can also be bought separately, for mix-matching individually–though the set will have a more discounted price as a collective unit. So, there’s more news for you! 🙂
Like the t-shirt, these dresses are also crocheted with 100% acrylic yarn. Dolls of pretty much any complexion can wear either outfit. I’ve decided to sell them at $18 each. All items are handmade by me, Orchid.
The first dress featured here is dark pink/magenta:
The dress goes down to the knees, and allows room for the doll to sit comfortably. The material also has a decent amount of weight, so the doll won’t blow away. 😉
Here it is on a doll with slightly different features and different hair color:
(Apologies for the image quality here–Fionnuala stayed at home that day, so the windowsill lighting had to do. I’ll update the post with better-quality images soon.)
The second dress is vibrant blue, with multi-color lining on the edges and torso:
Back of dress:
(Note: the buttons don’t look proportional in the photo, but they are in real life. The effect had to do with the camera angle. More accurate images of the dress are here.)

These dresses are for sale on here on Crochet Buddies. I’ll be making more very soon!
As an aside, I’ve seen comments elsewhere before about how these mini dolls have more distinct neck seams than others, so I’ve done my best to cover up the seams with this dress pattern, while also making the dress breathable without choking the doll. Hopefully it worked!
I can’t do custom orders for different colors at the moment (due to varying yarn supply), but feel free to leave a comment below, or email, regarding what colors I should choose next for the mini doll dresses.
Oh, and to hear these dolls’ individual stories, please visit the Adventures with the Buddies page.
That’s all for now. Stay tuned for more items and updates coming soon!~
