This gal was just a random inspiration. First I made the outfit and then the doll.

Look! She has cleavage!! Here you can see her little hat (or snood)

Love it!
Making things backward like that must have been tricky.

mad for crochet!

I'm glad you like her, Pauline. I was never one to follow the rules when it comes to crochet.

I had a flashback to the Pirates of the Caribbean movie: "Can't...breathe!"

Wonderful job! I love the outfit, especially the snood!
Did you use doll hair? How did you attach it? I'm always struggling with hair...

mad for crochet! The hair is a yarn called crayon from knitpicks. Any boucle type would do. I wrapped a bunch of the yarn around a book and then tied it together on one side and cut it on the other. I made a couple of these bunches and sewed them to the top of the head. Where I tied the bunches together makes the part in the hair down the middle. I hope that is clear.

Nice! I'll give that a try on my next amigurumi with long hair. I'm working on a witch right now...

Thanks so much

About Me:

Otherwise known as Ms. Busy Fingers.
In my free time this winter I experimented a lot with dyeing yarn with natural stuff like oak bark and pine needles. The colors from nature are so alive! I've been crocheting for several years now - took to it with a vengeance! When I am not hookin, I take care of the rich people's gardens out here on this rock in the sea.
