NOTE: This will be made to order, so check with me to make sure my wait time is ok with you.

This listing is for the doll like the one pictured, however, let me know if you want anything different in terms of outfit color scheme and hair fashion and skin colors. It is stuffed firmly with polyester fiber fill. She is about a foot in length. Her limbs are tightly crocheted but not stuffed, so they are bendable. She is made with an assortment of specialty multicolored yarns, including acrylic, mohair, and tiny sequins. Machine wash cold and lay flat to dry.

NOTE ABOUT PRICING:
My prices have gone up and down over the years as I've tried to negotiate a compromise between paying myself an okay wage and having my items be affordable. I decided that I'd give you the opportunity to choose your price. My bottom price will pay me $10 an hour. I have it topped out at $23.45 an hour (which is the median pay for craft and fine artists in the US). $15 an hour is generally considered a “living wage,” and a price point that reflects that rate is marked as such. I greatly appreciate any sale, regardless of what you choose, and I thank you in advance for understanding my desire to fully honor my work and time. If you can't afford a price in the upper range, please don't feel bad about selecting a lower price option. You are my support base, and I don't want to lose your business!

A little about me:
My two little kiddos are my life. I'm addicted to the practice of yoga. I'm a classically trained soprano. I've had one cavity my whole live. I don't believe things without evidence. I use too much salt. I made my own pogs as a child. I recognize my own white privilege and try to use it to help proclaim BLACK LIVES MATTER. I've crocheted for 20 years. Favorite TV shows: Six Feet Under, Freaks and Geeks, The Office, Parenthood, Broad City, Underground (but I'm never in front of the TV without yarn and hook in hand). Favorite Musicians: Bjork, Joanna Newsom, Regina Spektor, The Beatles, Radiohead, Sigur Ros, Kate Rusby, Jesca Hoop... I've never purchased mp3s online. I buy CDS. I want to try crocheting with cassette tape. I keep more yarn on hand than I need to. I gift crocheted items too often. I can save anybody with my blood. Favorite Movies: Dancer in the Dark, To Kill A Mockingbird, In America... I love any kind of olives, but they start to taste funny if they're left out too long at a salad bar. I like to trick kids into eating veggies by hiding them strategically in foods they like (anybody down for spinach pesto?). Conversation with my 3 year old son:
Prior: "Who are these?"
Me: "Those are your nipples."
Prior: "My nipples wants to take a bath."
