A Knitted Dwarf



This doll is fashioned after the Waldorf educational model founded by Rudolf Steiner in the first quarter of the twentieth century. It is designed to stimulate and preserve the inner nurturing creative forces in the child. The pattern is from Weir Dolls. I have a lot of beard yarn left so I am thinking I didn't make his beard full enough so I may just have to make it longer and fuller.

Dotee Doll

This is my most recent addition to my collection of Dotee's. My friend Kathy and I did a private swap she received my Dorie and this is the one she gave to me. I don't think she named her so I'll call her Autumn.

Stella and Bella


Here are two more Dotee's for the exchange. I thought I would do a mother-daughter duo. I'm not sure if I will split them up or keep them together.

This Dotee doll is for a swap. I'm still struggling with faces but at least they aren't so huge anymore.

Hulga, Hilda & Dorie


These three needed a little beauty makeover. Hulga and Hilda were just a little too ghostly looking so I used a little coffee on their faces and Dorie needed some hair and a little nose. Dorie has been adopted, so she is ready for her new home.

Dorie Dotee


Another Dotee doll. These are so fun to make and a little addicting.

Hilda Hugehead


I'm still practicing for the Dotee doll swap. It turns out Hulga has a twin sister named Hilda. I still don't quite have the head thing down yet.

Hulga Hugehead



I joined a Dotee doll swap and thought I should do a practice run since I really am not comfortable with faces. I see I need a little work on getting the right body/head proportion.

Dotee Doll



This was a little out of character for me when I joined a swap for a dotee doll. The purple one is the one that I made and sent and the other one isn't from my parter, she never sent one, but the host was kind enough to angel me and the yellow one is the one she made for me. Thanks Jessica.
