Evergreen Collection - Part 1
The models in this group are 3 gorgeous girls. Sasha is my 1968 blonde fringe girl with beautiful grey blue eyes, Katie is a 1969 Kilt girl and loves to wear her hair in plaits. Emilie is a beautiful Kelly Wenarsky repaint who wears a real hair wig in a lovely auburn shade.
Sasha is wearing a beautiful traditional style dress outfit. The dress has a very dainty leafy tendril pattern with dainty red flowers on a two toned ivory and cream background. I chose an ivory and cream patterned cotton for her collar, cuffs and pantalettes.
I chose a lovely greyish green polka dot fabric for her slip which perfectly matches the colour of the leafy tendrils on her dress.
Her socks are handknit using ivory lace weight shetland wool. She is wearing cream leather Boneka shoes.
Katie is wearing a beautiful sweater dress with a polo neck collar and a pocket at the front. It is hand dyed merino wool. There are many shades of green, aqua and grey in the dress. It is truly beautiful.
I teamed this dress with grey leggings and a beanie hat. This mid grey just seemed to make the colours in the dress glow. Beautiful combination.
It looks particularly stunning on my early blonde girl Katie. I think that is why I chose to put the cream coloured ugg boots with the outfit. I had been thinking of the chestnut coloured uggs but decided that the cream ones were the best choice.
Emilie is wearing a beautiful green flecked sweater and hat. They are knit using sock wool where the shades just seem to drift through each other from light to dark.
The green is ivy coloured and had a bluish tone which I used in the scarf which is knit using an ivy green, a blue and a very dark forest green lace weight wool. I have finished the scarf with a little tassel fringe.
Her hand knit socks match her hat and sweater and the outfit is completed with a pair of laced ankle boots.

So gorgeous! I'll glad I don't have to choose a favorite.
