teeny weeny



TINY waldorf dolls are easy and fast to make. These two took one afternoon -- and an evening. The hair took the longest time as I had to hook each strand onto the cap I crocheted. I also separated the yarn into three strands for the second doll, because I like the "wiry" effect. But the best part was styling it. You can try all sorts of things -- braiding, tying bows, hair bands.

I crocheted tiny pouches for the body and stuffed them really well so that there is a small belly. Then I stitched the illusion of legs and hands.

Little Shan Shan, samfoo doll

This is the biggest doll I have made so far, almost 18 inches. I love making the shoes, crocheted with soft cotton yarn. The look was based on a description my friend gave -- her first doll that she bought with her own money when she was a kid.

Cheeky checks

Adding the lace at the hem makes a lot of difference, I think. And this is the first time I tried making a boy doll. The hair was easy -- I just crocheted a cap with yarn that has tufts of hairy bits and then sew it onto the head.
