Measure from the shoulders to the center of the head and compare with the resized hood measurements from my pattern and adjust accordingly if you need. Add a little extra to that measurement so the hood is not tight.<br />Good luckAGDollFanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17396888710034907313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5912566959573353157.post-50785056302573590502021-05-18T16:47:26.260-05:002021-05-18T16:47:26.260-05:00I was planning to make this robe for a 12" ba...I was planning to make this robe for a 12" babydoll with a larger head. I'm not too worried about it fitting perfectly and can adjust the scale of the pattern, but I'm concerned the hood won't fit over the baby's head, lol.

By the way my doll is nothing like the American doll, she's a woman with boobs and extra long legs, so I just added to the length.

If you are a beginner sewer then I would rather recommend a plain normal cotton fabric. Lining can be a little tricky to work with especially when you are new to sewing.
