Ahh I’m glad you’re here, because I have a serious question.

Can clothes really alter a person’s personality?

8’s been acting really strange, his demeanor is . . .

Well, I don’t have time to explain, you’ll understand once you see him.

Dolly Sewing Crush: F.L.C. Boy Edition Project #3

For the 3rd project we made a stylish Knit Vest found on page 84 in the Treasured Doll Coordinate Recipe book.

38 steps is all it takes to turn ordinary fabric into a stunning Knit Vest.

The Knit Vest pattern fits dolls size:

11 cm
20 cm
27/28 cm
48/55 cm

The directions for the Knit Vest are written in Japanese and include images so you can visually see the step by step instructions.

- Draw a line

The Vest

Mark the front of the vest near the neck line
Match the line on the collar with the mark on the vest, right sides together
- Sew on the line
Clip center of the vest
Repeat for the other side
Make a mark near the armholes & the arm rib
Place the arm rib on the mark of the armholes
- Sew on the line
Repeat for the other side

Final Thoughts:

You’ve seen 8, now do you understand what I mean?!?

8 looks and acts like a different person in this outfit.

Dolly Insider Skill Level Rating:

Intermediate Friendly

Making this vest was super fun.

Attaching the ribbon along the neckline and armholes was a new skill for us so it was confusing at 1st but it started to make sense the more we played around with it.

Aww, this party train is coming to an end, see you next week for the final F.L.C. Boy Edition project
