Come on Barbie, Lets of Party!

Who would have thought that at the age of 60, I would still be playing with Barbie Dolls!

Well that’s not really accurate, but I did buy a cheap one recently so that I could make some clothes for my Goddaughter’s  two girls.

I did a search on the internet and found http://www.ravelry.com/  a great site full of patterns for all sorts of things and many of them free.

Freya had a beautiful, big Barbie house for her birthday that she will share with her sister Ava and it has a swimming pool, so the first thing I made was a swimming cossie.

Two crocheted sun dresses complete with matching bags and sun hats.

Knitted cropped trousers with a crop top.

There was also a knitted dress and jacket that I found a free pattern on Pintrest.

And finally, Barbie even has her very own Unicorn hat to match the ones I’ve made for the girls.

Happy Crafting,

Whatever your passion may be!
