Welcome to our ultimate knitting pattern for a stunning dress designed to fit all of Barbie's iconic body types! In this comprehensive guide, we provide detailed instructions for every size, ensuring that your handmade creations will beautifully adorn your Barbie dolls. Our existing body types include Vintage, Silkstone, Athletic, Made-to-Move, and Classic, which we'll refer to collectively as "Classic." These styles vary only slightly, making this versatile set of instructions perfect for all Classic body shapes. Additionally, we have recently included the new body types: Petite, Tall, and Curvy.
This master pattern encompasses instructions for four distinct sizes in the following order: (Petite) (Classic) (Tall) (Curvy). We have meticulously considered the "negative" ease required for each category of body type, as well as factors like body shape and relative arm and knee placements. When you adhere to our specified gauge of 9 stitches and 13 rows per inch in stockinette, you can expect an excellent fit that will make your dolls look their best!
