Yes folks, 44 years old and never had a Barbie! Actually, she isn't mine. Mum's op shop occasionally have naked or semi-naked dolls donated to them, and Mum brings them home and knits clothes for them. When she mentioned she had this Barbie doll I told her about a knitting pattern book at the library. Unfortunately, it has gone missing, but not so the CROCHET book. As the only crocheter in the family, I got the job of dressing B! I find her completely endearing - who couldn't love that smile? Or those blue eyes?
She desperately needs a hair make-over (how does one wash B's hair?) but she's in good nick otherwise. Don't know when I'll get her clothes made but I think it will be quite a glamorous job.
I knew that cone of lurex would come in handy o
ne day!
ne day!

This is going to be very interesting. be sure to keep us posted on the Barbie chronicles.
once Barbie's hair has gone that way, there's no getting it fixed!
