Greetings from the PNW!

Postby Calochortus » Sun Feb 12, 2012 2:34 am

Hello there, everyone. I've been registered for a while now, but I've been lurking... a lot. Until now!

My name's Calochortus, which is a herbaceous flowering plant native to the occidental side of the Americas, which is where I live (the Pacific Northwest, to be more exact).I'm a nerd and self-proclaimed genius.

..Err. Well, I'm in my twenties and have two biology-related degrees, an uncanny ability to foretell boring future events in dreams, a torrid obsession with Frederic Chopin (really, all the yaoi jokes aside, I would have been so much better for him than that George Sand), and the desire to be a spinster and knit/crochet/tat/spin/sew and rescue Scottish terriers and cockatiels forever. Oh, and I consume massive amounts of tea and literary fiction.

I liked dolliehs as a child and still have all of my MLPs and some of my Barbies from back then. I've been in love with bjds since about 2005, but haven't decided on anything yet. I have some Pullips, though, and I'm tempted to just stay with them or other fashion dolliehs. Also, I've been wanting to get better at making dollieh clothes, and that's one of the reasons why I'm here!

Or something. I promise my other posts won't be this science-y or awkward. It's nice to meet you all!

Nice to meet you.
If your introductory post is any indication, I'm sure you'll have lots of fascinating things to contribute.
Do you have any pictures of dollieh clothes you've knitted or crocheted? I'd love to see them.

I realize now I made myself sound way cooler than I really am....

I have crocheted a few 1/6 newsboy caps/bucket hats... I just have to find them and photograph them now. I'm far more into sewing for my dolliehs, but I've seen some super adorable knit/crochet patterns out there.

I hate to be even more awkward, but thanks so much for the welcome, everyone! It sounds like this is a wonderful place!
