Lady in Waiting

Hot weather + hectic weeks have made making friends for Lucy a wee bit difficult but not impossible; luckily dolls are very patient.  But I suppose you have no choice when you don’t have arms or a painted-in face.  Oh, and your little midi collar (or shawl, I can’t decide) is missing.

SPEAKING OF SHAWLS, I plan to make at least one chicken shawl for my friend Kara’s new chickens!!  I’m head over heels excited for her and even a little envious because how could you not want your very own chickens?

Have a good Wednesday, dears!

    She is sure to be very cut. What type of yarn did you use for her hair? And a chicken shawl? I love it!

      Wow, looking at this doll in it’s unfinished state just gave me a great idea. Thank you!

              @ Amy: It’s Rowan Kid Silk Haze, the same as for Lucy’s hair. It’s fun to play with. :)

                    Poor little dolly. I’m sure when you are finished with it, she will be so darn cute. I have an almost done dress that needs buttons, and I can’t seem to get it done, too many things thrown in the mix this week, so I hear ya!

                      I have to meet with my hope-to-be partners-in-crime first. They are 10, 7, and almost 3 years old and have incredibly busy summer schedules. Hint: It will be a stuffie/dolly of some sort. What I needed was a new shape.
