The cobbled texture of this sweater may look complicated, but it is very easy to achieve. If you can do single and double crochet stitches, then you can create sweaters for your doll for every season. With three options for sleeves, there is no limit to the wardrobe possibilities. Made with long sleeves and paired with pants, it crafts a perfect cool weather outfit. In cotton or bamboo, a sleeveless edition will top a breezy skirt or perky shorts perfectly. And the short sleeve version in any fiber makes a smart replacement for a plain tee in any ensemble.

Note: This piece is intended to fit snugly. Nine repeats of the pattern, from sc to sc, measures 4 inches wide. Ten rows of the pattern is 2 inches tall. If your piece is too large, switch to a smaller hook. If it is too small, switch to a larger hook. The width measurement is more important than the height.
