A while ago I made my daughter a baby doll carrier. I found a pattern through Pinterest and when i showed it to her, she absolutely loved it. So I printed the pattern piece, pulled out my fabric, and crafted this baby carrier. Put her baby doll in it and put it on her. Well, she loved it and I totally did NOT! It was so hard to get the doll in, the straps came around in a weird way that looked totally uncomfortable, and it had to be tied which, while not a huge deal, is not something I liked.

I did post a picture of her with it on my personal social media and had several friends express interest. I knew I couldn’t bring myself to make and sell the version I had made (even though the author says you can as long as you give credit.) So I went to work designing my own. I am kind of giddy over how it turned out.

First, I made the baby compartment bigger so my daughters Bitty Baby could fit. Then I changed it from one strap going from shoulder to waist into two different straps (waist around back and then back to shoulders. I also added straps that go over the dolls shoulder to hold the doll in better. It is adjustable and should fit from about age 2 to age 8.
