SECTION 3 

Fashion Doll Blouson 

Sundress & Hairband 

Materials: 



Three small, thin, clasp-less scrunchie elastics to match 

thread 

This dress fits both the "old" and "new" Barbie. Since there 

are no buttons or snaps, it's an easy-on dress for little ones. 

Work fairly tightly for best results. If you crochet loosely, try a 

smaller hook.

Fiesta Jump Rope 

Materials: 

About 1 1/2 to 2 oz. variegated worsted weight yarn (I used 

Red Heart’s Mexicana) 

Crochet hooks size H and D 

50 pony beads in colors to match the yarn 

Two 1/2” lucite rings 

Fiberfill 

Yarn needle 

3 1/2” x 6” piece of sturdy cardboard 

FIESTA JUMP ROPE  



The “rope” part of this jump rope is made using the crocheted 

lobster stitch cord with pony beads added to give the “rope” a 

little weight. An illustrated tutorial of this stitch can be found 

at Daphne's Tutorials 

  

To work the lobster stitch cord jump rope: Using yarn 

needle, thread 50 pony beads on the yarn. Leaving a 10” yarn 

tail and using size H hook, ch 2, sc in the 2nd ch from hook 

Don't turn. Instead flip the sc toward you (clockwise) so the 

bottom is on the top. See that little single bar on top? Insert 

hook in that and complete sc. *Flip upward toward you again 

(clockwise). Now there will be 2 bars on the top. Insert hook 

under those 2 bars and complete sc.* Repeat from * to * 39 

times, then slide up a bead, (repeat from * to * 11 times, slide 

8

  

up a bead) 49 times; repeat from * to * 40 times; fasten off 

leaving a 10” yarn tail. 

Handles  

Make 2. Work tightly. 

Round 1: With size D hook, work 12 dc around one of the lucite 

rings; do not join. 

  

Round 2: Sc in each of the 12 sc around; do not join. 

  

Rounds 3-29: Repeat round 2. After round 29, insert one of 

the end yarn tails of the “rope” through the ring and pull the 

yarn tail and the “rope” through the handle; adjust the length 

needed for the jump rope and tie an overhand knot in the end 

of the rope to prevent it from slipping out of the handle. Pull 

the beaded side of the rope until the knot seats itself above the 

ring. Stuff the handle very firmly with fiberfill. 

  

Round 30: *(Insert hook in next st and pull up a loop) 2 

times, yo and pull through all 3 remaining loops on hook.* Repeat 

from * to * 5 more times; fasten off, leaving a yarn tail for 

sewing. Thread yarn tail in needle and sew the stitches of 

round 30 closed, then knot. 

  

Tassels 

Make 2. 

Cut a 12” piece of yarn and lay it along one of the 6” edges of 

the cardboard, centering the cardboard. Tape each end of the 

cardboard to the yarn to temporarily secure. Wrap the cardboard 

72 times around the 3 1/2” width; cut yarn. Un-tape 12 

“ piece of yarn and knot tightly around the yarn wraps. Cut the 

yarn wraps on the opposite side of the 12” piece of yarn to release 

tassel from cardboard. Wrap yarn several times around 

tassel about 1” below top; tie tightly. Trim ends of tassel. Sew 

ends of the 12” piece of yarn to the end of one handle; knot securely. 

Weave in ends.
