Print the pages on A4-size papers. Make sure you have set page sizing to "Actual size" before you print the pattern.
You can measure the 1 inch x 1 inch square in the pattern page to check whether the page has printed correctly.
Seam and Hem allowances:
Seam and hem allowances are included in the pattern.
Seam and hem lines are shown with dashed lines.
Front and back: 0.25 inch for the neckline, raglan armhole, and for the side seams, 0.50 inch for the hemline
Sleeves: 0.25 inch for the neckline, raglan sleeve cap, and for the side seams, and 0.50 inch for the sleeve hemline.
You have the shorter version of the tutorial below:
Step 1: Join the sleeves with the front and back pieces.
Step 2: Fold the sleeve hemline under 1/4" twice, and sew 1/8" from the folded edge.
Step 3: Join the sides with a 1/4-inch seam allowance.
Step 4: Fold the hemline of the top under 1/4" twice, and sew 1/8" from the folded edge.
Step 5: Finish the keyhole closure of the back neck. I have attached two cords to make a bow knot. (I have explained this step in the detailed sewing tutorial here.)
Step 6: Attach a bias tape to the neckline, fold it inside, and hem by hand.
Done! You have made a beautiful top for your doll!
Happy Sewing!
