I don’t know if any of you have ever visited the AGPlaythings.com website? They have a great message board over there for American Girl Doll Collectors and although I admittedly have a limited amount of time, I love to browse the boards and see what is happening. I don’t know how I missed it – especially since it is one of our customers biggest requests – but right there on the site they have free American Doll Dress Patterns to download and print out right from the site. Don’t think these are tacky American Girl Doll Dress Patterns either. No sirree – these are the real deal. The actual retired American Girl Doll Dress Patterns straight from American Girl themselves.
I am having trouble opening the links for the free patterns. This is my first visit to the site.

Are there any free crochet and knitting patterns for the american girl?

Julie,
I had no problem opening the linkd but I had to download them first. THey were well worth it. There are pattern pieces that are full sized and all the directions to sew them. The first page of the download is a color shot of the dresses included. This is a great site!!!

How very exciting that you have linked up to our site at AGPlaythings!
I love the patterns and was so excited when we were able to include them for collectors and enthusiasts who wanted to sew for their dolls.
With the retirement of Samantha and Kirsten my girls needed new duds. I have only just gotten to the point where I am making the clothes from the patterns. If anyone needs help with the patterns please feel free to run into the HomeEc section of the forum and get some answers from fellow seamstresses.

Hi Pamela – AGPlaythings says you can visit their forum to get support. I have heard from other customers that they are very helpful.

Thank you!!!! If you click on the image of each girl’s pattern it will download a zipped file (blahblah.pdf.zip). You must unzip each pattern set before it will be in a useable format.

Thank you so much. Using the patterns to great results. Helps get thru this snowy winter. No problem down loading them.

The free doll clothes patterns take a long time to download, and then must be unzipped. They’re very nice if you can get ‘em. As for knit and crochet patterns — there are loads! Check out http://www.knittingpatterncentral.com or http://www.crochetpatterncenter.com, for example.

Great Patterns, I made a blouse just adapting the PJ top and the sleeves were a lot easier than I expected. Are there any other patterns, well written like these available for contemporary clothes? Thanks so much!!

Hi Michelle – we are working on making more contemporary patterns available via Emily Rose. Stay tuned

You need to down load the Adobe 9 which is on the site. It is safe and that should help your problems

Thank you SO MUCH for the link to the patterns! My niece’s birthday is coming up and she asked me to make some pajamas for her American Girl doll – lucky for me, there was a pattern specifically for pajamas!

I have downloaded it, but I am having much trouble opening the actual file.

I’m looking for crocheted hat patterns for the American Girl…. Like the Kitt hat. Anyone know where I may find one?

Tried downloading Molly patterns. Would not even begin to download. Help!
June 15th, 2010 at 6:18 pm
They are very large files Sonja. Some folks who don’t have a broadband connection are not able to download at all. They may just be slow though so give them time.

How delightful to find the old patterns! Have the originals except for Josephina.
Thank you very much!
