Enchanted Knits for Dolls

I don't have any eighteen-inch dolls in my life, which is a shame because Enchanted Knits for Dolls by Nicky Epstein is full of some really amazing projects. This is beautifully detailed, heirloom quality stuff. 

They're not all girly princess gowns. There's a pirate, a Peter Pan costume, a gnome, and a dragon. And they have awesome accessories.

And princess gowns, because....well, probably because princess gowns are wonderful. I love Rapunzel's hair, which is attached to her hat.

The genie is my absolute favorite of the bunch. You can see all of the projects on the book's Ravelry page.

It's almost enough to make me want to run out and find a doll of my own.  I can imagine that if this book has existed while my great-grandmother was alive, she absolutely would have knit these...if she knit. Maybe she just did crochet?
