Little Women - 18" doll Daydress circa 1860, crocheted vest & embroidered shawl

This beloved classic, written by Louisa May Alcott, can now come alive for your little girl and her special doll. The enclosed pattern contains instructions for a daydress (circa 1860), embroidered shawl and crocheted vest. The dress features historically correct details such as braid trim, pagoda sleeves, dropped shoulders and overskirt. The batiste undersleeves are assembled separately, and may be omitted if desired. The crocheted vest works up quickly using simple stitches and worsted weight yarn. The embroidery on the shawl may also be omitted if desired.

As an extra feature, "Historical Notes" throughout the pattern keep you and your doll "up-to-date" on the lastest fashion trends of the 1860's.
