I'm a new-ish collector from Norway. I got my first doll back in 2021, a Doll Chateau Alva but he has unfortunately been mostly in his box until relatively recently. But I slowly got him some stuff and I'm learning to knit and hopefully sew and now I have a Charm Doll Wooho on the way I also got a Dollmore Dreaming Mio head lol. Excited to join this community
Probably a shirt for my DC cause he has such long arms I have avoided buying it for him lol. But I'm knitting a sweater for him now
Hello and welcome. I also have Alva so I'm very curious about your doll and how you style him. Oh, knitting - I admire people who can knit or crochet because I'm a total disaster myself.
Hope to get him more presentable soon, but so far because of a mix of personal preference for cute pastel colors and the difficulty of finding him shoes - he's turning out quite feminine lol. Since he's so non human looking I want to dress him a little weird though. Your Alva is so pretty! And yes knitting and crochet can be hard, I found crochet to be a lot easier though.
Welcome hehe (I say, despite not having done my own introduction yet lol) , hope you have fun here I mainly just wanted to mention that I like your profile picture (Gumi! Yippee!) and I'm also happy to see more fellow Doll Chateau enjoyers !
Gumi's the best! (sort of, she's not technically my number 1) And my intro to bjd's was thanks to Doll Chateau so they'll always have my heart
Alva is such a cute doll! I'm a bit hopeless with knitting, but am trying for the third or so time to figure out crochet, hope your learning goes well!
well aha..he has half a face up done from three years ago but if it turns out halfway decent when I redo it and I can muster up the courage to post..
do post pictures of the sweater when you are done, i love seeing others’ designs for their dolls’ costumes. (:
