Minoan Goddess of the Bees
8.5" Finished height when worked with 2.5 mm/US size 1 needles and fine yarn.
If you love Bumble Bees and honey then you'll love this sweet knitted doll. She's based on tiny images that were painted on household items thousands of years ago in ancient Crete. Some people think that she's also a Goddess of the Dew, which is a refreshing thought! In that case, you might want to knit her up in shimmering morning dewdrop colors as well as "Bee" colors.

Artemis
(and her mouse, rabbit and beaver)
8.5"
Finished height when worked with 2.5 mm/US size 1
needles and fine yarn.
This
doll is based on an ancient image on a Greek pot
that is thousands of years old. Artemis was
the protector of young children, women in childbirth,
the wild places of the Earth, and of the animals.
That's why the patterns for a mouse, rabbit and
beaver are also included with Artemis.

Nancy
12"
Finished height when worked with 2.5 mm/US size 1
needles and fine yarn.
Nancy
is a sweet celebration of simple lace knitting.
(Her sweater and skirt are knitted with an easy
lace pattern.) Her sweater is removeable, and her
skirt can be knitted in your choice of lengths.
She wears spiffy striped stockings and dashing boots
under that lacey skirt. Feel intimidated by lace
stitches? Then knit her sweater in plain knitting
and her skirt in stockinet stitch.
