I finally made a Mini Free Spirit crochet doll...she is responsible for the inspiration of the Blossom Petal's cloth dolls I created. The credit for the crochet pattern belongs to Beth Webber. You can get the free pattern by visiting her blog www.byhookbyhand.blogspot.com. She's a wonderful, lovely, giving, inspirational, and kind woman. She is my kindred spirit. Thanks Beth.
Her name is Katie. The size of this doll measures 8 inches tall. It's suppose to measure about 7 inches or so...I don't know what happened. She still turned out cutesie anyway. I hope I make Beth proud. by the way my son named her
I gave her eyelashes made with embroidery floss. It was very exciting for me to crochet the hands and feet because I've often wondered how Beth did that...Beth. that sure was a clever and unique way to make hands and feet...I loved it!
I made the crochet clothes, shoes, hair clip, umbrella, and teacup set.
I will have the teapot crochet pattern available for making. I will be having a giveaway for the teacup set crochet pattern real soon. It's crocheted in size 10 cotton thread and the teapot has a removeble lid. So if you're interested stay tuned. I will also announce the giveaway on www.youtube.com/carolyndolls. The pattern will be in a pdf file.
Wow, Carolyn! She is beautiful, and very much carries your unique look :-) Great job!

I love the toothpick doll. There's a doll club in Brooklyn, if interested, come join the brooklyndollclub at yahoo groups.
ReplyDeleteThanks Lora for the invite. I'm working on moving to Brooklyn. Someday I'll make time to go. It's great to have a local here in the Bronx.
ReplyDelete@Beth, Thank you doll...I'm content that you created the pattern, I enjoy watching how you create your dolls.
