However not such a pretty one in your post. I do however have what I call "hostess Pinnies" that I wear for special occasions, which are full length with shoulder/bib ruffles and a ruffled hem. a bit like this. http://complete-costumes.co.uk/fancy-dress-images/2367-2392-Ladies_Victorian_Edwardian_Maid_Costume_.jpg Best Wishes, Kim.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266734708350378757.post-32373557219635452015-03-03T13:37:42.248-05:002015-03-03T13:37:42.248-05:00That cabled sweater is very cute!

You could definitely make one. <br />Pretty much all I need to learn about doilies is patience - the crocheting part I already have down. ;)<br />In fact, I'm actually a much more proficient crocheter than I am a knitter. But I'm trying to be equal. :)<br />I can't wait to see your crocheting creations! They're bound to be beautiful!!<br />Thanks, Miss Michelle!!Estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15235395280071814298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8266734708350378757.post-76946484261782422192015-03-03T13:36:23.380-05:002015-03-03T13:36:23.380-05:00Aren't those dolls the best?!

My paternal grandmother, Mema, makes the most beautiful ones. She is the one who taught me to knit. So now she's teaching me crochet. :) She learned growing up\in Germany at school!<br />Those dolls are too cute!
