I just made a new sweater for Feebee out of a pair of ankle socks. Low price and looks great! This tutorial is good for 1/3 scale dolls, so grab 2 socks (4 for long sleeves) and your sewing kit. :)
Here's 2 ankle socks. |
Cut off the toe about here. |
Slide the sock over the doll's head. |
Cut holes next to the doll's shoulders. |
Cut out sleeves. These will be short. |
Turn the sleeves inside out and stitch 'em up. |
Turn the sleeves rightside out and the body of the sweater inside out. |
Put a sleeve on your finger and stick it through the sock so it sticks out a little bit. |
Sew the edges together. Be patient, because this part is tricky. |
Before you turn the sweater rightside out, stop and make a hem on the bottom of the sweater. |
Want a hoodie? You're done! Don't want a hoodie? Keep going. |
Cut the ankle ring from the hood. |
Cut the hood off. |
Flip the ring inside out and stick it on the neckline of the sweater. |
Sew the unfinished edges together like this. |
This is what it looks like after it's sewn. Now you can turn the collar rightside out. |
And you're done! :D |
That's it! Please take a picture of your new sweater and post it for me to see here!
