Before we discuss 2015 plans and themes, let us check those lovely Christmas sweaters Brini sent. Now the sweaters are not one-size fits all: I think of them as being small, large, and extra large. The blue ones are small, the button-trimmed one is large and the pom-pom tie one is extra large. The bodies modeling the sweaters are a Disney Mattel adult male, a YNU Group, Incorporated female, a Spin Master Liv female, and a Mattel young male teen. Or Kocoum, Emerald, Snow, and Harry.

Here are two closer photos of the Disney duo: Kocoum from Pocahontas and Snow from Snow White. If you have bent armed Kens from the late 1970s-2000s, you can use Kocoum's fit for how your bent-arm era Kens (or Ken buddy) would fit this size of the sweaters. The sweater fits over his head without the need to remove his head, but the torso is a little short. (The back view exposes more of Kocoum's waist than we think looks "nice." Fortunately, he has a toned torso.) It might be possible to stretch the sweater longer. The sweater arms are a perfect fit for this Mattel body.
Snow's head is on a Liv body. She is wearing the large sweater. The arms are a little long; the body, wider than needed. But I think it looks becoming on her. (Plus: it balances her head.)

Here are Emerald and Harry in the extra large and small sweaters. The small sweater fits Harry fine. It is just a little wide for him. You can expect a similar fit for your other 10 3/4", straight-armed young male teen bodies - think Teen Skipper's boyfriend Kevin.
Emerald is slightly swamped. The sleeves are a little long and the body a little wide. Still, she can wear it well. The sweater looks like a sweater-coat on her because she has a heavier build than the Liv body or basic Barbie bodies.

If you have any requests, let me know. Please note, some dolls and action figures refused to wear the sweaters. More on that with the follow up.
Thanks, Brini, for making this holiday and post-holiday fun possible.

I love Emerald in the sweater coat! That style was sold out by the time I made it to Michael's. I did get two others, though.
Hi Jewel! I agree. Glad you got some of the sweaters. They're fun!
Beautiful sweaters, your dolls look great in them!
Hi D7ana, they may not be perfect fits, but they all look warm and happy with them!
Festive!
I love seeing the differences in fit between doll types, so thanks for sharing this!
Hi D7ana!
Those sweaters are cute aren't they? Thanks for showing them to us on different dolls. My girls liked them, but my guys didn't like the sleeves being too short. :-)
So cute! I just assumed "sweater coat" on Emerald, and it looks great that way.
Bring on the detailed video...!
I like Snow's the best. That fur around her neck sets off nicely with her hair style.
Hi Night Owl, Billa's Dolls and Fashions, jSarie, Cindi Mortensen, Smaller Places, and Muff!
Yes, the sweaters are festive and fun to try on. I'm getting other dolls to model them.
Your dolls look really cute in these sweaters!
Hi Roxanne! Thanks - from me and them. I agrre. Yay, Brini!
Your dolls look great especially Snow. I think Kocoum might be a bit cold given what we've been hearing about your weather.
Hi Carrickters! Yes, Kocoum is feeling the cold this morning. We all are ;-)
The dolls and I thank you for the compliment.
