Sasha Doll Pattern - Slip Stitch Striped Sweater...
30 August 2010
A lovely new free knitting pattern for Sasha and Gregor dolls.
I have created a page for the knitting patterns so they will be easy to find.
I hope you will enjoy knitting it.
The Sasha in the photographs is Sarah the first Sasha doll I ever bought for myself and the second Sasha doll I have ever owned. She is a pretty brunette girl from the mid 70's. When I bought her I had never even heard of falling hair. I was incredibly lucky that her hair is perfect. Probably because she had been played with and not stored in an attic. She has beautiful eyes and her fringe likes to flick over to the side. Her other main attribute is that one leg is quite a bit shorter than the other so she stands rather nicely.
When she arrived in time for Christmas, I brought her down to show my mum and we placed her on the mantel piece beside Jane and just sat looking at the two of them together...
This pattern is for the 3 colour version.
I used a similar pattern knitted using 2 colours for the sweater that is photographed with the other free pattern on the blog for the scarf and hat.

Just another beautiful example of your work. I'm really not a "knitter" but, am willing & eager to try knitting this sweater -- My husband will probably have me committed after my umpteen attempt. The foaming mouth & blabbering mutters will be worth the trouble if I can produce a garment half as lovely as the one you designed. Marilynn

Love all your knitteds. Have just started knitting for Gregor and baby Sasha and finding the right size patterns hasn't been easy. I was thrilled to find your free patterns and can't wait to try my "hand" at making these. Hope you will put more on your site!!!! Keep up your marvelous work.
