The Well-Dressed Demon :-)

I had to give Angelique a few more Demon touches, including a knit dress with a skull motif around the border, and a neckchain of demon trinkets :-)

The neckchain idea came from this blog:  http://www.insidecrochet.co.uk/patterns/day-of-the-dead-bracelet/
I used a skull pattern from the Lionbrand site, and an Irish rose of my own, but the idea was all hers.

Here is the pattern for Angelique's Demondress.

    Welcome back, my friend! Thank you so much for your good words on Demonchilde; she was wicked fun to make :-)

    There's a KAL on Deena's Ravelry site: We Make Dolls, that uses her free Lottie Doll pattern. I'm going to give it a go, even though the doll is quite a bit bigger than I usually make.

    Enjoy relaxing at home...what's on your hook these days??

    In friendship,

    Beth

    Hi Beth,
    To cute, I'm impressed. She's awesome. Did you use your Spirit doll pattern for the doll?
    Sure wish my knitting skills were better, I have a young person that would love this doll.
    Love her,
    til next time,
    Connie

      Hi Connie!

      I used Isabelle Kessedjian's My Crochet Doll as the basis for Angelique. I really like her doll form, and she is very easy to crochet. Bet you could do the same with one of the patterns available on the blog, or borrow Isabelle's book from the library (I did!, but then, I had to buy it :-)

      Have a lovely day!

      Beth

    I don't know how you managed to make a scary looking doll look so good. I am not a fan of anything that's associated with demonic stuff, but ooops you did it again. Nice!

    Thank you for the pattern for the dress! I modified it a bit to fit this doll:

      Your doll looks awesome in her Demon Dress :-) I'm glad you were able to use it for this sweet crochet doll.

      Happy New Year!

      Warmly,
