Curvy Barbie Checked Skirt All Sizes
Discover the perfect knitting pattern for the stylish checked skirt designed to fit all of Barbie's body types! This comprehensive pattern includes detailed instructions tailored for the following existing body sizes: Vintage, Silkstone, Athletic, Made-to-Move, and Classic. From now on, I will refer to all of these variations collectively as "Classic," as they differ only slightly. One set of instructions will seamlessly accommodate all "Classic" body styles. Recently, Barbie has expanded her collection with new body types: Petite, Tall, and Curvy. This knitting pattern takes these latest additions into account, allowing for versatile and inclusive fashion choices.
This master knitting pattern features instructions for four unique sizes in the following order: (Petite), (Classic), (Tall), and (Curvy). Each size has been meticulously crafted to ensure a flattering fit by considering the necessary "negative" ease according to each body type, shape, and specific placements for the waist and knees. The exceptional fit is guaranteed when the recommended gauge of 9 stitches and 13 rows per inch in stockinette stitch is adhered to.
For this project, you'll need light fingering weight yarn or sock yarn paired with a set of US 1 (2.50mm) double-pointed needles. My personal favorite yarns to use for this skirt are Knit Picks Comfy and Jawoll, both of which provide great durability and a beautiful finish.
The skirt is designed to effortlessly slide on from the legs up, ensuring easy wear for Barbie as she flaunts her new fashionable piece. Whether you're knitting for playtime or display, this checked skirt pattern will elevate Barbie's wardrobe and spark joy in any knitting enthusiast.
