A Scottish Doll

IMG_7916

This is my latest creation in dolls. This one was for a swap I did. The recipient had a Scottish background with an Irish dancing daughter so I did my best to incorporate the two factors, along with their chosen colour scheme, into a suitable doll. I crocheted some Irish dancing slippers, gave her a fancy head band and long flowing locks. She also wears a kilt, matching scarf, white lace bolero jacket and lace top. She was also a mini poppet so that meant she was about 3/4 the size of a normal doll.

I really enjoyed making this one as it seemed to go quickly and get character pretty early on. She was different from anything I had made previously also.

Her swap should turn up later this week, and that will be exciting. I only hope I get to photograph her before my girls try to take off with her.
