MINIATURE KNITTING:
I have recently started knitted some "combinations" for a 1/12th." scale male doll. I am knitting it with sewing thread. At the moment I am nearly at the top of one leg, and it has taken a total of ten and a half hours to knit, so far. I will finish it eventually, although I really enjoy doing miniature knitting, so I don't mind how long it takes to knit it!

Lovely dolls ! I like most that 1. doll. National costumes are all interesting !
Thank you for your kind comment. I love all of these dolls, especially the Zulu bride. The bead-work is fantastic! Carole.
Hi Carole,
What a lovely bride and right you're, the bead-work is great!
I also like very much to see a wooden Tarahumara (Rarámuri, in their native tongue) doll. Those indigenous from Northern Mexico live under the most difficult conditions and a hard evironment, but they make lovely little dolls!!!!! I really love them! Congratulations.

Hi Julieta. Thank you for your comment. I also love the Tarahumara (Raramuri) doll. I am particularly fond of tribal dolls. Greetings from Wales, U.K. Carole.
