Wearables Set made of natural linen and Baltic amber

Jun 20, 2025

    1. Hi!
      Made a set consisting of body con little black dress, wide maxi skirt, hat, shawl. Material: natural linen, Baltic amber beads, broke a thick necklace to get them. And a sock.

      I mentioned the shawl but you will have to wait till you see it, sorry, I can’t find it. It should be there but it isn’t. No idea.
      Linen thread I use is 20/2 size, very thin. The shawl l crocheted using a bigger needle to make it soft and drapey. The skirt - not too small, not too big, just right, like Goldilocks. And the smallest for the hat, thread 4x. Mind this hat is very similar but not the same as the one I published a few days ago, the one with flower crown. The ribbon of this hat is crochet loosely, and sewn on with the beads. The bow heavily starched, ironed, sewn on.

      The skirt took me several months to make. Started from the belt, added more and more stitches every few rows. About halfway through I realised that I have added too much for the width, it was getting unmanageable, unwinded, continued without adding any. In this one and the first photo you can see the added stitches against the black of the dress.

      This is the pattern of the skirt:

      Added the beads, done.
      The little black dress is made from a knee high sock. Just cut it with pinking shears, top part secured the edge and folded over about enough to cover the breasts. First idea was to make drop shoulder collar and slits for arms hidden under it. Good that I tried it on before cutting, that sock is so tight that no way I could get her arms inside there.

      And a little bikini from the foot part:

      Bag l got in TKMax, it was somehow meant to be human size but barely can hold one bank card. l still need some amber jewellery. Bracelets and necklace from beads and elastic. Maybe I get earrings when l visit my parents in Latvia soon. And obviously need to find that shawl. That’s a mystery.

      And I found the missing shawl. Obviously in the shawl box. And obviously after I had already undressed the doll. This is the mischievous piece of clothing:

      Yes, I also like that jewellery but this is the one meant for the blue summer dress. I’m crazy, I know :lol:
