Long time since my last update

Long time since I`ve been on my blog. The reason??? I`ve been working outside on my house. It is under renevation. The panel and isolation has been changed. But I will update you when I`m done with all the work.

But this blog is about dolls. And the last doll I got hold on is called Cirkeline. When I was a bit younger than today ... about 40-45 years ago there was a cartoon movie for childeren I loved to watch: Cirkeline.
She was a little girl that lived in a match box. For some days ago, there was a lovely lady who put her out for sale, and I just had to get hold of the doll.
And here she is: 
Here is also the match box she lived in. All the cartoons ended with her going to bed in this box. I remember I always wanted her to live with me. I had a lot of fantasies about what and where we were going to play. I just loved theese cartoons.

 But this lovely lady also sent me some more. And I got all the other things for free, included a little doll and her teddy bear. Isn`t that a lovely lady? I think so. 

The doll is from Japan. There are several collectors from Norway that just love theese dolls. this is my first one. I have never thought about collecting theese doll... perhaps this is my first step in doing so??
And along with this doll, the lovely lady also sent a knitted set of sweater and a pair of socks. By my knitting skills it looks home made. Oh my... knitting so tiny clothes... I bow for the person that did this amazing work.
Since the autumn is coming, this little darlig has to put the clothes on. Just to keep warm. Look at the lovely wooden teddy bear that she also sent.
This is the whole lot she sent me. A picture and two pair of rope braiding knitting loom. Thank you so much Lillian. I  am very happy for all this.
