Make 1 cream, 1 pale pink, and 1 smaller cream rosette.

2. Row 2 RS: k1, yo, k2tog across to last st, k1.

Wings Make 2

Each wing is worked flat in two layers: one pale outline piece and one inner decorative fill piece. The shape should be broad and rounded with a slightly pointed inner base. The image shows butterfly-inspired wings with pale blue edging and cream interior motifs.

Outer Wing Base Make 2

Using pale gray-blue and 2.75 mm needles, CO 3 sts.

1. Row 1 RS: k.

13. Next RS row: BO 3 sts, knit to end.
14. Next WS row: BO 3 sts, p to end.
15. Continue shaping top lobe by decreasing 1 st each edge every RS row until 5 sts remain.
16. BO.

Make 2 mirrored pieces for the lower wing section if you want extra depth, or simply embroider the lower contour with pale blue chain-like stitches after stuffing lightly.

Inner Wing Fill Make 2

Using cream, work the same shape but stop when the piece is about 0.4 inch smaller all around than the outer base. Sew onto outer base. Add pale blue vein embroidery and one small circular accent near the upper outer tip using pale blue French knot style wrapped stitches or a tiny knitted spiral circle.

Wing Edge Finish

• Outline the inner sections with backstitch or duplicate stitch in pale blue.
• Lightly pad with a whisper of stuffing or a layer of felt if desired.
• Optional: insert a very thin wire around the outer edge before closing so the wings keep the curved spread shown in the image.

Dress Overview

The dress is the visual centerpiece. It has a fitted pale blue bodice, tiny flower trim at the neckline, a very full bell skirt, vertical ivory lace panels, a scalloped overskirt, and a textured lower hem. The skirt should be wide and luxurious, but still soft enough to drape around the doll.

Bodice

Using pale blue and 2.75 mm needles, pick up 24 sts evenly around the torso just below the arms, or knit separately flat and seam. The cleanest result is to knit from the torso downward.

1. Rnd 1: k all through back loop.
2. Rnd 2: p all.
3. Rnd 3 to 6: k all.
4. Rnd 7: M1R every 4 sts around. 30 sts.
5. Rnd 8: k all.
6. Rnd 9: p all.
7. Rnd 10: M1R every 5 sts around. 36 sts.
8. Rnd 11: k all.
9. Rnd 12: p all.

At this point, sew 5 tiny knitted flowers along the neckline: cream, yellow, pink, lilac, and yellow, with tiny green leaves between them, matching the image.

Main Skirt Expansion

1. Rnd 13: k3, M1R, rep around. 45 sts.
2. Rnd 14: k all.
3. Rnd 15: p all.
4. Rnd 16: k4, M1R, rep around. 54 sts.
5. Rnd 17: k all.
6. Rnd 18: p all.
7. Rnd 19: k5, M1R, rep around. 63 sts.
8. Rnd 20: k all.
9. Rnd 21: p all.
10. Rnd 22: k6, M1R, rep around. 72 sts.

Change to skirt pattern sequence. Mark 8 repeating panels of 9 sts each. In every panel, use 3 sts of pale blue ground, 3 sts of ivory lace, and 3 sts of pale blue ground. This creates the vertical pale lace channels visible in the image.

Lace Panel Pattern Over 8 Repeats

Ground sts not mentioned are knitted in the color in use.

1. Pattern Rnd 1: In each 9-st panel, k3 blue, k1 ivory, yo, ssk, k1, k2tog, yo, k1 ivory, k3 blue.
2. Pattern Rnd 2: k all, keeping colors.
3. Pattern Rnd 3: k3 blue, k1 ivory, ssk, yo, k1, yo, k2tog, k1 ivory, k3 blue.
4. Pattern Rnd 4: k all.
5. Pattern Rnd 5: k3 blue, k2 ivory, yo, ssk, k1, k2tog, yo, k2 ivory, k3 blue.
6. Pattern Rnd 6: k all.
7. Pattern Rnd 7: k3 blue, k2 ivory, ssk, yo, k1, yo, k2tog, k2 ivory, k3 blue.
8. Pattern Rnd 8: k all.

Repeat these 8 pattern rounds 4 times total. Increase one stitch between every other panel on the final round of repeats so the skirt opens further. Aim for about 80 sts.

Floral Surface Embellishment

The photo shows many tiny bud-like flower accents scattered across the skirt. After knitting the base skirt, add these details with embroidery or miniature knitted motifs.

• Add 10 to 14 tiny bud flowers in pale yellow, cream, blue, and pink.
• Each bud can be made by wrapping yarn around needle 4 times, slipping off, and stitching down as a small rose knot.
• Add 1 or 2 straight leaf stitches in green beside each bud.
• Concentrate the flowers on the lower half of the skirt and around the overskirt edge.

Overskirt Scalloped Layer

This layer creates the draped petal-like edge that crosses the front of the dress. Work separately, then sew around the upper skirt about halfway down.

Using ivory and 2.75 mm needles, CO 72 sts.

1. Row 1 WS: p all.
2. Row 2 RS: k all.
3. Row 3: p all.
4. Row 4: k2, yo, k2tog, rep across. This gives a delicate eyelet line.
5. Row 5: p all.
6. Row 6: work scallop setup as follows: [k7, turn, p7, turn, k7, turn, p7], BO 1 st, rep across from [ to end. This forms shallow shell segments.

For a cleaner result, you may also shape scallops in standard rows:

1. Section A: CO 12 sts, work 8 rows stockinette, decrease 1 st each edge every RS row 3 times, BO. Make 6 scallops.
2. Sew scallops edge to edge into a curved overskirt band.

Sew overskirt around the front and sides of the main skirt, leaving the back slightly simpler, just like the image where the front view is richly layered.

Final Assembly and Facial Detailing

• Sew arms level with the top of the bodice and angle them slightly downward.
• Sew wings to the upper back, centered and tilted outward so both upper lobes sit just above the shoulders.
• Place the hat low enough to frame the bangs but high enough to keep both eyes fully visible.
• Position the crossbody bag from left shoulder to right hip, matching the photo.
• Rest the watering can beside one foot and place the strawberry basket near the opposite foot if styling for display.
• Use a tiny amount of pink blush on both cheeks.
• Embroider 2 or 3 fine lash lines at outer eye corners if not using detailed safety eyes.
• Keep the mouth absent or extremely faint so the calm sweet expression stays true to the image.
