PATTERN AND INSTRUCTIONS: The Skipper Dress and Bodysuit
🕑 Added 2021-04-01 14:24:09 +0000 UTCUPDATED 02/14/2024: Skipper is now available in our full size range! Get the files for the 2-20 and 18-34 (A-H Cups) pattern below.
Meet Barbie’s sassy little sister, Skipper! This fabulous knit pattern can be made as a bodysuit or dress. Skipper has a wide scoop neckline and the option of elasticized puff sleeves or cap sleeves. The dress option has a straight skirt that is so Bettie Page, and the bodysuit has a full-coverage bottom with a snap closure at the crotch. Even better? Skipper also interchanges with our Barbie Top pattern (Patreon, January 2021) to maximize your options with the mock turtleneck and 4 additional sleeve options (band, short, three-quarter, and long). You can also use the lower half of the Barbie Top to turn Skipper into a hip-length top. Don’t forget to watch this month’s video to earn your badge in sewing knits and get tips on adjusting the pattern.
Wondering about fabrics and supplies? Check out the written instructions at the bottom of this post for links and recommendations. You'll also find the tiled file (for printing at home on A4 or letter size sheets and taping together) and the A0 file (for printing at a copy shop like pdfplotting.com).
We hope you love Skipper!
xoxo,
Gertie

Can we get a pattern extension please?
just saw the previous comments... page 44, thanks.
I can't seem to locate one of the pattern pieces for the tiled.pdf download. I'm missing (not seeing) what would be the top-left shoulder outside corner piece of pattern piece #5-scoop neck top front A-DD cup (A 5A-DD) I have the pieces that are on pages 43, 46, 47 already. If anyone has the page number where I can find that last piece, I would appreciate it.
