Lady Barbie

© Esmerelda Jones

Dreaming of creating some truly exquisite costumes for your Barbie? Barb Alexander has designed a collection of such patterns and they are available at her website, free. I have selected these particular styles for you as examples of her fine crochet, but others are also listed on the index page. Lose yourself in these patterns, as you try to decide which one you'll begin with. They take you back to days of satin, velvet and antique lace with pearls. When printing these patterns, the background color will also print, so it's advisable to cut and paste them into your word processor, or go to menu, edit, select all, printer icon. You can also email Barb and she will send you the pattern you want via attachment.
