Step Into Spring Collection Preview - Part 2

I have just finished the Step into Spring Collection and am now ready to take photographs of all the outfits for Sasha Doll Style.   The light quality is awful this afternoon so I have just taken a few preview photos to let you see the new outfits.
I have had a huge amount of fun planning new styles for this collection.  
Some of the outfits have several different ways in which the doll can wear them.  The outfit that Keira is wearing is an example of this.  She can wear the dress with the jumper tied at the front and carrying the swimming costume in her bag.  Or she can wear the dress without the sweater with just the bag and her bead necklace or she can wear her swimming costume. The pants that go with the outfit are my usual style that can also pass as shorts and they look very cute worn over her swimming costume.

Introducing Robbie

For a long time now, Pip has complained that she needed a brother.

Finally, a couple of weeks ago, I won this beautiful 1968 brunette gregor (on ebay) who we have named Robert, Robbie for short.

He has lovely brown hair cut in the 60's style, short above his ears with longer bits in front of his ears. His eyes are really beautiful and very similar to Pip's with the fine darker outline around the iris. His lips are a little faded and rubbed but he is a wonderful played with Gregor who has an exciting past as a much loved child's friend.




Pip is really excited at Robbie's arrival and couldn't wait to show him her panda. We spent ages looking for a panda that was the right size for her as she is quite fussy about the type of toys she likes and the panda was on her wish list for a long time.
Pip is a cute 1968 side part girl with beautiful eyes and lovely natural looking wavy hair. Her hair is falling so we take care of it by not washing or brushing it so she always has a slightly tousled look about her.


Pip is wearing a long belted cardigan that was part of the Winter Frost Collection. The rest of the outfit was sold but the Sasha who was buying the outfit didn't want the cardigan as she liked the dress without it. So Pip was very quick to tell me that she wanted the cardigan and that she thought it looked very cute with her jeans. She is wearing later Gotz blue shoes with her jeans.
Robbie has a cable sweater that I made a long time ago and a new pair of needlecord trousers with pockets. This is teamed with a pair of black laced leather shoes.

They look so cute together and make a gorgeous brother and sister. Their hair is just the same shade of rich brown.

Aran Sweater in Natural Colours

My Gotz Maria is wearing an aran sweater.

Maria is really cute. I love her ponytail hair style with her long fringe. She does have some neck caving which seems to be very common in these particular Gotz dolls. Her's is relatively mild.

The sweater has been knit using a 4 ply sock wool in a pretty mottled fleck in natural and oatmeal colours with a little spots of taupe and grey. It really suits her colouring.



At the moment I am searching for a wool that matches the colour of her taupe trousers. The corduroy enhances the colour of the sweater.

Haven't decided what style to knit her hat yet.

Ivory Aran Sweater teamed with pink



When I completed the ivory aran sweater I decided that it would look cute with pink. The scarf has been hand knit using a beautiful fluffy sock yarn and the same yarn was used to edge the beanie hat.

Luckily, I had the same shade of pink in needlecord.

Velvet is modelling this outfit.
