'Chrystal'

A TEAROOM Doll 

...made from beautiful Shetland Wool...

creating a well - structured doll with flexible limbs

My yarn swift has been a good friend this week...

...winding skeins for Chrystal's'doll hair' to add to her kits...

(found to be very relaxing and comes highly recommended :-) )

...warm and rich, coppery shades...
 and I love the texture it's created for Chrystal's hair..

...now a  few important notes about
'Chrystal'...
1. Chrystal is the 'in the round' version of the original
'DOLLS from the TEAROOM' knitting pattern
2. Although the pattern uses only basic knitting stitches
experience of knitting 'in the round' is required 
to work from the pattern.

2. She requires very little sewing as she is created using
double - pointed needles and small circular needles (optional)
...with only a handful of small openings 
to close which are required for stuffing
...and her complete 'body length' is seamless...

3. Her Winter Pinafore and Tassel Hat require no sewing

4. For anyone who has the original 
DOLLS from the TEAROOM 
knitting pattern which is worked 'flat and seamed' 
Chrystal can be created using these new yarn 
shades and working from the plain knit sections for
each of the dolls in the original pattern...
(she will magically turn out to be the same doll :-) )

5.'Chrystal' Doll Kits will be available on 
the 'Doll Kits' page after Christmas week

Thank you  ...
to everyone who has purchased 
'TEAROOM Doll' Kits recently either online or at the 
'Knitting and Stitching' Shows
and for your lovely feedback which has made me feel that 
there should definitely be more kits available in the future
(they have travelled to all corners of the globe!)

I've had major problems with my computer recently
and actually don't even have my own at the moment 
which did set me back in completing this pattern 
...but...
I'm very happy with Chrystal and hope everyone who purchases her 
will enjoy creating her as much as I did 
...at this moment she's sitting in my workroom 
watching me decorate my tree ♡...

Chrystal: A TEAROOM Doll

♡   ♡  ♡

I hope all your Christmas preparations are
going according to plan
and thank you for finding the time to visit
at this busy time!

I'm also hoping to be back in the next few days
...so until then...
...have fun...
...keep cosy...
or enjoy the sunshine
...wherever you may be...
