blythe news: phoebe maybe

hey girlies. i just wanna share with you a new AH-DORABLE blythe doll that i found today. i love her. and her name is phoebe (pronounced feebee) maybe. i just love that name. here is cartoon photo of her.

her stock is to-die-for cute, right?!

here is her bio...

I'm Phoebe, I'm a time traveler. I just arrived in the year 1960 to stop my friend from making the biggest mistake of her life! But wait a minute, Phoebe, maybe you are not supposed to change the future. Be careful!

i love that she's from the 60's!

here is more info about her...

Phoebe Maybe travels through time. She wears a dress with colorful flowers printed around her torso.
Between each pleat, there is a pink stripe. Under the dress, she wears a mustard-colored shirt.
She also has green kjnee-high socks and shoes with four straps. When she travels through time,
she always carries her big pink suitcase. She has long light-brown hair with soft curls. Her hair is parted on the side and she keeps it neat with a pink hair band. Her make-up consists of light green eye shadow with salmon pink cheeks and lipstick. She has a special olive-green eye color when she looks left.
Phoebe’s face is the radiance type with? translucent skin.

she's coming out in may and i think i might have to get her! (and nicky lad too, hehe) i can't wait until i see a real finished live photo of her. i know she will be just adorables. :)

a little DIY that i love.

hiya guys, it's me, apple! my mommy let me share a special post about a DIY from holly sarah of createloves. it's the cutest little DIY, and i hope you enjoy making one as much as i watched mommy make mine! here it is...

it's a slouch hat. i just love it! now here's how to make it...it's REALLY easy if you are good a crochet!



Using a fine/dk weight yarn and a 3.5mm hook.

To start, chain 4, and slip stitch into first chain to create a loop.

Row 1: Ch 2. DC (double crochet) 14 into center of loop. Join with a slip stitch in 3rd ch. Ch 2.

Row 2: 1 DC in same stitch as Ch 2. 2 DC in each DC around. Join by slip stitch into 3rd ch. (28 stitches) Ch. 2.

Row 3: 1 DC in same stitch as Ch 2. *1 DC in next DC, 2 DC in next DC* repeat from * until end of round, join with a slip stitch in 3rd ch. (41 stitches)

Row 4: repeat row 3 (60 stitches)

Row 5: repeat row 3

Rows 6, 7, & 8: 1 DC in each DC until end of row, ch 2.

Row 9: Double crochet decrease all around the row. Join with slip stitch. Ch 1.

**Double crochet decrease: Work a double crochet in the specified stitch until two loops remain on the hook. Keeping these two loops on hook, work another double crochet in the next stitch until three loops remain on hook; hook yarn and draw through all three loops on the hook.

Rows 10 & 11: 1 DC in each stitch around, sl st, ch 2.

Row 12: 1 DC in each DC around, sl st, ch 1.

Row 13: 1 SC in each DC around, sl st. Finish off.

i hope you enjoy making one and my mommy will probably show a photo or 2 of my modeling the one she made for me one day. my mommy tells me to say thank you for reading our blog and she will be back with another post soon. if you are interested in seeing the source of this slouch hat pattern, go here.
