The Rosie Doll

I knit this Arne & Carlos doll as a baby gift for my friend's little girl. I was so delighted when she said she would call her Rosie as that was the name I gave every one of my dolls when I was little.



The pink for the tights and the ribbing around the collar is Debbie Bliss Rialto Aran 100% Merino wool in the colour 21227. The gray t-shirt is left over wool from my older son's narwhal. Her skin is knit from Cascade Yarns Elysian 60% superwash Merino wool/40% Acrylic in the colour white (01). All of the yarn was purchased at MoulinĂ© in Montreal. Her hair came in a bag of remnants called "Yarn Bites" that my mom bought me at Ply while on vacation in Texas.

Her dress is knit from the left over wool from this baby surprise jacket project.


I hope you and Rosie have lots of good times together Andie!
