A Touch of Fantasy

I've had Mae, my Key To My Heart "A Fairytale Wedding" by Linda Rick (The Doll Maker) since April. Initially I thought she was going to be a companion for my other Linda Rick doll which is fourteen inches tall, but was surprised by her shorter height when she arrived. Once I saw she was only twelve inches, I wasn't sure what to do with her, but I did remove her wedding dress. However, when I saw her naked I realised she had far too much hair, so the wig came off too.

During the days that followed (back in lockdown) I tried several wigs on Mae, finally settling on the J-Pop one she is wearing now. It's a very pretty combination of pale blue and lavender soft Japanese Kanekalon® fibre. Then, as she needed clothes to wear, I began knitting again. Using the same Jacknitss and PWT patterns as I had previously, making a few more mods and 4ply yarn with smaller needles (2.25mm), I managed to produce this dress and matching coat.

When she was dressed, Mae took a walk in the Elvin Forest and came across my little Pegasus (Luts Tiny Delf Centaur Jack Bubble Mint/White Ltd. Ed. default face-up).


Mae: Hello little one what are you doing here?
Pegasus: I'm looking for my friend Princess Hera.


Mae: I'm sorry I haven't seen a Princess today, but I am happy to be your friend.
Pegasus: Oh, I'd like that too. Let's shake on it.


Mae: It's a little warm here in the forest, so I'll take my coat off.
Pegasus: Okay, then we can get to know each other.

I also found some little white boots in my stash that fitted her perfectly. It seems boots are all the range, even in the Elvin Forest. 😊

    This is so cute! Pegasus looks so cute, I love that color. I also like the dress you knitted for Mae, it reminds me of cotton candy.
    Have a lovely rest of the week.

      Thanks MC, I have two centaurs this size, this Mint/White combo and Princess Hera who is Real Skin Brown/Tan and just as cute. I can see why too. 😊

    It's all about the right shoes- especially in the woods. Adorable little pegasus. And you definitively went for the pastels. I have to say the colors suit little Mae much better than the sherbert UFOs :D

    She turned out so sweet, love what you have done with her. I wish I knew how to knit, have tried many times, but just couldn't get it. Great photos.
    Hugs,

      Thanks Dee, I only have the two, but Linda Rick dolls are very pretty. The wig is very soft and I though it added an air of fantasy to her. It always makes me smile how we all see dolls differntly.

    Thank you Linda. Pegasus is actually a boy, and in love with his friend Princess Hera, but he always enjoys making new friends. Ah you twigged! 😂 I'm glad you enjoyed it.

    Oh, she looks great in that wig and fits perfectly the fantasy setting :). I love her outfit too - and Pegasus is so cute! I'm thinking about finding some company for my Myun and I was considering some minis from Luts... Seing how lovely Tiny Delfs are in person I might just have the perfect match ;)

      Thank you Chiriann, I don't think you would be disappointed with a Tiny Delf, I have a few and they are all cute, but the centaurs are a favourite.

    Love those boots! The pastel rainbow colour scheme on her outfit is just right for visiting an elfin forest.

      Thanks Uschi! I agree with you, one should wear rainbow colours in the Elvin Forest. 😊
