Notes

OOPS, I forgot I hadn’t put these here! My sister asked me to make these last year to go on the cake table at her wedding :D (That’s why the groom has massive feet - James is a scuba instructor so she said I had to put him in flippers…!)

I’m still kind of a crochet novice so it was hard going and OH GOD SO FIDDLY with such a tiny hook! I gave up on the groom’s suit in the end because the wool was too dark to see the stitches properly, it was easier to knit. That’s totally my newbie fault though, not the pattern which is brilliant - really detailed and full of pictures, and the designer is super helpful and lovely as well and sent me a chart to illustrate something I was being stupid about and not understanding. Everything was worth it though! They came out so tiny and detailed with a really good shape, not all cartoonish and dumpy like crochet/knitted dolls sometimes are.

Also Kidsilk Haze for doll hair is ridiculously extravagant but OMG IT LOOKS AMAZING I WILL NEVER USE ANYTHING ELSE.
