I have even created a doll’s dress

Oct.10, 2009

There has to be something said for living away from family and friends so that you allow your mind and your hands, and your needles and your yarns do things that would not enter the universe of your knitting thinking.

I have created a doll’s dress. I do not have a doll.

Pretty Doll dress fit for a queen

This dress has been created with varigated 4 ply yarn – a yarn I purchased at a market in Schalwijk (I will check the spelling) before my stash arrived here in the Netherlands. Steinback Wolle Aktiv Effeck – sport und Strumpfwolle. You will see a number of pieces on my site created in this particular colour – shawl, hat and fingerless gloves or wrist warmers. Must because it has purple in it – and I think I have used it all now.

Pretty Doll Dress

I have knitted and crocheted dresses for my daughters dolls – but that is some 30 years ago and there are no patterns or pictures. Pity. I remember one having a skirt of many frills, flounces, and many colours – a Spanish dancing costume.
