BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Doll Making Dolls Cap

Could any body give me a free site to get a pattern to make a cap for a doll 18" and up :)

Hi Narrawallee,

What kind of a cap are you looking for?

Hi Helen,a cap for a boy doll,sorry should have explained myself better.

Hi Narrawallee,

I did find a free pattern to knit a small cap. It is available in preemie size which might fit your doll. You can find the instructions Here.

If it asks you to register before showing you the pattern, do so, it's free.

If this is not the kind of cap you wanted, give me more detail about what you are looking for and I will try to find it.

I should of said a cap for a boy doll that I can sew. I can knit but I love my sewing more. I will have a look at this site as well.

Hi Narrawallee,

I have done some searching, but I haven't found anything. The best advice I can give you is to find a real boys cap that you like, maybe in a toddler size and use it as a pattern. Carefully take it apart and trace each piece onto paper then make each piece just a little smaller. Remember to only decrease the size a little because as each piece is smaller, it will be much smaller when all put together.

Make your first cap with throw away fabric to see if you like the end result. When you see the size of your finished cap you can adjust up or down in size as needed.

I hope this helps, and please share a photo of your cap when finished.

Narrawallee and Helen,

Here is a link to "how to make baseball caps" that may help. The size needed depends on the measurement of the head.

Baseball Cap

Hope this helps. I do not know if it is a baseball cap you need or just a simple cap with no visor -- however, a simple cap can be made the same way without the visor.

Thank you Phyllis had a look at that site and will be very helpful I went looking as well and I found this site thanks for helping out it is really appreciated.

What is a UBB code

Glad that will help you, narrawallee.

A UBB code is a special code that adds formatting to links, like I did above. New members cannot add links until a certain number of postings have been made (I cannot remember how many). That is a BellaOnline policy which helps with a lot of spamming and advertising problems.

If you just type in the name of the site you found, I can find it. I am curious to see what you found.
