Crafting is fun for all ages and interests. This blog evolved from researching resources for friends and articles I write as a freelance writer. It is a place to share the information I discovered. Please feel free to leave comments and questions. I am always looking at new projects ideas for family and friends in areas of my own abilities and theirs.

Our Generation Dovetailed
This is a fairly standard donation pattern for the Our Generation Doll. It is one of Darski's free patterns you can find here.>
The shoes are from Sweet Silver Creation's School Girl pattern that can be purchased here.
This grey photographs lighter than the actual color. I was confused when I looked up the previous post as it also looked like a lighter grey and I don't have much light grey in my stash. This is Red Heart Super Saver Dusty Grey and it is the color I'd want again for this dress. I recently ordered some light grey for some other projects and I think it would be too light. The Red Heart Super Saver Gray Heather I use for another of Darski's patterns is too dark for this outfit although based on other pictures I have used it previously.
Notes:
I start the skirt by crocheting around a hair band with an I hook.
The increases need to be made on the side of the skirt. I start the overdress with a K hook switching to a J hook when I change to pink.
The back is finished and I add three button holes. Darski and I differ in that I do not let the buttons go below the grey line.
I used a H hook for the hat working as written.
I'm still struggling to make shoes without the strap that stay on the feet. I used an f hook for these and they still aren't quite right but I'm trying.
