Crochet for Barbie

Did you know that Barbie is worth more than 3 billion dollars? Not bad going!

She has been in existence for nearly 50 years, and inspiration for Barbie as we know her came from a German doll. Today Barbie comes in a variety of styles, and she has a great number of adult collectors as well as playing an important part in the life of young girls (and boys?).

There are some great ideas around for crocheting clothes for Barbie - I've written about it at BellaOnline.

If that inspires you to crochet for Barbie - then there is a great book with lots of designs from Nicky Epstein. As you would expect, this is a lovely book with lots to look at and clear instructions.
