This slipper should fit most YoSD sized dolls and some MSD sized dolls. Slight changes in size can be made by using a larger or smaller needle to affect gauge. Greater changes in size can be accomplished by adjusting the number of stitches cast on (for width) or the number of rows knit (for length) or by using yarns of various thicknesses.
