This cute little doll shrug fits the popular 18-inch dolls such as American Girl, Gotz, Madame Alexander and Our Generation. It is quick to knit in a lighter-weight worsted yarn.

Be sure to check out the photo of the long-sleeved version done by nekkidknitter. She has modifications on her project page.

September 26, 2016 update: Some minor changes to the written pattern including changing the title and additional photographs but the instructions are the same.
