Here's another gal from the fashion show. She's a basic Tyler doll that I've had for years. Her name is Toni and she is doll #66 in Lofton. Population of Lofton is a whopping 278! As a friend said to me "they come out of the woodwork Jane" ha ha I think she's right. Anyway here she is wearing a knit microdress or micro mini as we used to call them
I really love making these dresses, they are quick and quite easy to do. I actually saw one on Pinterest (where else eh) and thought I could copy it. The midsection has a purl on the knit row every so many stitches. I think I did it every 6th for the Tylers and every 4th for Barbie.
In the fashion show Toni wore this shawl I knitted as her shrug wasn't finished in time for the show.
The ends hadn't been weaved or sewn in yet so I just wrapped it around her to hold it on.
Yesterday I finally finished her shawl which is varigated black, white and gray. She is wearing black patented leather shoes which is why I made her the shrug in this colour.
The shrug is a Barbie pattern that I found on the Internet back when I first learned to knit. I just added more stitches to fit the bigger dolls. Which do you like the best on her, the shrug or the shawl? I used to do polls on this site before but not sure how to now. Next time maybe.
MEANWHILE...Santa has arrived in Dolton and he is pissed!
What no snow!!!!
Well I almost told him to 'Shuffle off to Buffalo' (old song from our parents day LOL) but kept my mouth shut. I set him up in a nice little apartment while I went and did this.... (sorry Donna)
Pic doesn't represent what is going on but I'm sure you can guess! Yep I'm making snow like they do on the ski hills. It was blowing around but the camera didn't capture that. This location is my future ski hill in New Dolton so I'm gonna need lots more. Don't worry I have TONS of batting as that is what I used to pack my dolls in when we moved here. Hmmm do the math, 3000 dolls X bags of batting. Yep think I have enough to cover the whole town!
