Latest knitted fashion dolls




These are the two latest in my series of knitted fashion dolls. Pinky and Melissa are inspired by the big eyed, long limbed Asian ball jointed dolls. My daughter told me they had to be as unlike knitted fete fodder as possible. What do you think?

Melusine


I've also bee painting again. It's great to have holidays in which to play without the worry of using them to make money. This is Melusine.

Knitted Minnie doll


Here is a picture of my finished Minnie doll. Minnie is our chiuhaha (spelling?) and I've always thought she'd be great fun to dress up in pink and with ribbons and bows. Instead I've tried to make a knitted doll version of her.

Here we are again, just me, myself and I. Well, we enjoy our company. I'm going to put some new photos up of my dolls. They are all designed and made by me. Enjoy!

Help! Someone read my blog!

This is my second attempt at having a blog. This time it's all my own! I still bet nobody reads it. Oh well, you can't say I didn't try. I'm giong to put some pictures up of the things I do best.
This is one of my knitted dolls. I've been working on a design that is funky and different to the type of daggy thing you get at fetes. This is a goth girl, probably a vampire. I'm so in love with knitting toys at the moment. The doll at the top is Melanie. Both these dolls were inspired the Asian ball jointed dolls so popular at the moment. I wanted one but couldn't afford it so I decided to make one myself! In wool.
