The whole design consists of a bunch of double crochet stitches. I measured the top and hip parts of the doll and added chains accordingly. Then, I continued with double crochet stitches. Increased once for the skirt and then continued with 1 DC per stitch to give that frilly look. The bow is a combination of trebles and chains inside a magic ring.
BTW..My 6-year-old suggested the color combination and the design. It felt like working for a mini fashion designer ;)
Top pattern
1. Measure the top part and add chains accordingly.
2. Slip stitch to the first chain
3. Add DC and slip stitch in each row.
4. Add as many rows you want. It is proportional to the length of the top.
Skirt Pattern:
1. Measure the size of the hip and add chains accordingly with purple yarn.
2. Slip stitch to the first chain
3. Add double crochet stitches for 2 rows.
4. Attach pink yarn for the third row.
5. Increase in the fourth row. Add two DC in each stitch.
6. Continue with one DC in each stitch from the fifth row onwards. Stop when you are happy with the length.
Note: You can add chains separately and insert them to the top of the skirt (like an elastic) and bottom of the top to make it fit well. You can insert the chains into the required stitches and tie a knot at the back to make it tight. This is optional.
