How cute, and how much fun you must have had!!! Dressing dolls and little girls was sheer fun for me, too.
As for the socks and leggings for the AG dolll, get some of the cotton knit like you use for cuffs on a sweatshirt. If you pin it slightly snug, to fit the foot and leg and then just zig-zag a small seam, it will fit the foot and stretch . For doll socks, I sometimes stitch a narrow piece of lace along the top, and stretch it as I stitch it, and when the sock top is folded down, it sort of gathers the lace like a ruffle.
