1. It has come to the attention of forum staff that Dollshe Craft has ceased communications with dealers and customers, has failed to provide promised refunds for the excessive waits, and now has wait times surpassing 5 years in some cases. Forum staff are also concerned as there are claims being put forth that Dollshe plans to close down their doll making company. Due to the instability of the company, the lack of communication, the lack of promised refunds, and the wait times now surpassing 5 years, we strongly urge members to research the current state of this company very carefully and thoroughly before deciding to place an order. For more information please see the Dollshe waiting room. Do not assume this cannot happen to you or that your order will be different.

    5. After taking a break for several weeks, you have inspired me to pick up my needles again
      @Jane . I am knitting a short cardi for my DT girls.

    6. I am too slow a knitter Clara and I have wrist issues so sometimes I have to stop knitting entirely.......sorry.
      I can't wait to see what you are making Coleen......do you use a pattern or just make it up as you go along?
       
      #266 Jane, Mar 22, 2018
    7. So sorry to hear that Jane. Your knitting is lovely.

    8. Hmmm... I stopped gettign notifications about posts to this thread so just had to have a little catch-up read...

      Glad to hear you found your old photos, Coleen.

      I must give that mitten knitting pattern a try, Jane, but like you, my wrists (carpal tunnel, in my case) have put a damper on the knitting side of things and I haven't picked it back up again much since October. Good luck with Peneelope's mittens, and the cardi after that.

      And I STILL haven't taken that picture of Winnie in her new dress.... {sigh!}

    9. The trouble @Jane and @Teddy is that when we are a little older and have more time to knit our body wants to give us issues! I too have had 2 carpal tunnel surgeries on my right wrist and I have arthritis. I don't notice the problem when I am knitting,, but when I go to bed I can feel my wrist and arms aching.

      I use a pattern Jane. I am using a Soudane pattern I got from Etsy. Créations Soudane by soudane. I did try a hand at my own pattern, and ripped it all out! When I pulled out my box of yarns and threads I found a bunch of ponchos I made for the 16" fashion dolls and a tip I made from my own. I discovered the top fits my new Narae!

    10. Thanks Clara ((hugs))
      Sorry to hear you are having wrist issues too Teddy *sigh* I cast on and have completed the cuff of the first yellow mitten for Penelope.
      And I am still looking forward to seeing Winnie soon.....hehehehee


      Isn't this the case! *rolls eyes*
      And thank you for the link to Soudane's pattern site. I haven't decided which pattern I will cast on yet......I will get this next mitten project finished first.

    11. Does anyone plan to order during DollsTown's sale period?
       
      #271 coleen, Apr 10, 2018
    12. What sale period???? Jane dashes off to the DT site to find out more......thanks Coleen!

      Adding in a question: does anyone know how to order a face-up with a head? Do you email Mr Anjonghak and ask for it to be added?
      Second edit! I found out how to do it *duh me*

    13. I should have said something sooner. But you still have plenty of time to order. :)
       
      #273 coleen, Apr 10, 2018
    14. @coleen Thank you very much for pointing it out. I have a spare DT7 freshskin body here that has been waiting for a head for over 6 months now.
      I am just deciding if I get a DT face-up or get an artist in the UK to paint a head for me.

      Are you ordering?
       
      #274 Jane, Apr 10, 2018
    15. I'm not this time around. I just ordered the special Dandelion heads from Bimong and will order the classic Narae body next week when his sale period opens. So many dolls, so little money. sigh
       
      #275 coleen, Apr 10, 2018
    16. I know that feeling so well! LOL! We are on rotation display over here.....I simply don't have the space to have them all out at once now.
       
      #276 Jane, Apr 10, 2018
    17. My Deogi has a DT faceup and it was really easy. Before I placed my order I sent 3 or 4 photos of the general style I was looking for (basically I wanted red hair colouring and no sad eyebrows) and asked if they could do it. They replied that they could and then I placed the order. It was really easy and communication was great. I'm also trying to decide whether to order during the sale. I have a Seola (no faceup yet) and I'm trying to decide whether she should just share Deogi's body or have her very own.
       
      #277 Jaybirdfinnigan, Apr 10, 2018
    18. Thank you so much Kristin......did you have to request a custom face-up or did all that communication count as a standard one?

      And good luck with deciding about the body sharing idea.
      I am playing body sharing with 3 of my SD girls with ease but I like my DT7 gang to play together so I simply couldn't do it with them.
       
      #278 Jane, Apr 10, 2018
    19. It was custom. In retrospect, I should have just scoured the DT Flickr albums and found one that looked close on another doll so it would have just been standard. I was a bit afraid of her looking too old if I chose a faceup from a sculpt meant for an older body type. Even the custom price is pretty reasonable, especially when you figure you don't have additional shipping charges to and from a third party faceup artist. I wish they offered faceups when I ordered Seola! Which head are you considering getting for your body?
       
      #279 Jaybirdfinnigan, Apr 10, 2018
    20. Thanks again Kristin....that really helps. And I understand what you mean about choosing a face-up style from an older doll and requesting that for a child sculpt.
      I prefer how some of the lips are painted on some of the older dolls........I have lots to think about here

      The usual suspects....Maru, Amy 5 or Jea
