A charming pair of period dolls: the Lady with golden ringlets, a wide-brimmed hat with roses and a long dress with lace trim and a satin sash, and the Gentleman – a little musketeer or prince with brown hair, a hat with a feather, a frilled jabot, a jacket with cuffs and tall boots. Make the lady in pink, turquoise or any colour you like.
A knitting pattern by Svetlana Zabelina with step-by-step instructions, tips and process photos. Both dolls are included.
