I had been trying to find easy patterns to make Ken doll clothes that didn’t require super small hooks and yarn that is hard to find. I came up with this pattern. I hope you enjoy it and please make as many as you like. Please don’t sell my pattern. Feel free to do what you like with your own finished project.
Tank top or shirt.
I used an “F” hook and sport weight yarn.
Working from the bottom up. Ch 33,turn,sc in second ch from hk,con’t a sc across.
Row 2-12:Ch1 turn,sc in each sc across.Do not fasten off.
You have now completed the bottom of the shirt we will now be making the neckline and armholes.
Ch1, sc in next 7sc,ch10,sk3 sc,sc in next 12sc,ch10,sk3,sc to end. Ch1 turn.
Row 2: Sc in each sc and ch across, ch1 turn.
Note: Stop here for tank top. Fasten off. Tie in ends and sew fasteners to the back.
Continue on to row 3 for shirt.

Sleeves
*With right side facing* Join yarn with a slst in first sk sc underarm, sc in each sc around. (16sc total) Do not join.
Rnd 2: Sc in each sc around til you have 16rnds from first joined Rnd.
Next Rnd sc, sc2tog around.
Work 2 more rnds of sc. Fasten off. Tie in ends.
This is for long sleeves but for shorter sleeves only sc 4 or 5rnds. Then fasten off. You can also put the fasteners on the front to make it a jacket. I will post more pictures of the different shirt looks. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. Thanks for looking!
Shorts or pants
You will need a 5″ elastic or you can sew together a thin piece of elastic measuring the same length.
I used an “F” hook size and about a sport weight or sock weight yarn.
Start by making a sl knot on your hook and we are going to sc crochet around the piece of elastic 30 times. This creates the waistband for the shorts.
DO NOT JOIN. We will be working in the rnds for this piece.
Con’t crocheting around on a circle for 7rnds. *You may want to place a marker at the start so you know when you have reached 7 rnds.
Now we will begin the leg, your piece should be at the back center where you started Ch3, sk13sc,sc in next sc and each sc around starting the first leg.
Rnd 2: Work 1sc in each ch and sc around.
Rnd 3: Con’t working in the rnd for 2 more rows. Or desired length. *Note for pants I con’t in the rnds til pants leg measures 4 1/4″.*
Fasten off and tie in end. Now your ready to start the other leg.
Join yarn in back of next leg, I started with a ch2 for the first sc then rep Rnds 2 and 3 til you have the desired length.
