DO YOU REMEMBER SINDY'S .

Hi Everyone. Today I thought I would start to show you all some of the little
treasures I have picked up lately.

Do you remember Sindy's or were you a Barbie fan.

I had Sindy's so that shows my age.

I could not resist these three at a local boot sale.
When I was younger I had the dark haired one.
As you can see no clothes so I decided to knit some.






















                              I did not have any patterns just made it up as I went along.






                                             This one I decided trousers jumper and a necklace.






                              This one I decided on a full length dress with matching hairband.
                              I also knitted her some white undies....




                                           I added a flower trim to her dress and hairband.





                                   The third I knitted a cute dress and red long shorts.
                                    And added a strawberry button to her pocket.



                             This doll has had her hair cut so I put it all up with a orange ribbon.



                                  They are all now dressed and ready to party the night away.

  1. I had a Sindy, a blonde one I think! One of my cousins had masses of clothes for her Sindy and we used to share. Wonder what happened to her! My Sindy that is, I know what happened to my cousin!! xx

  2. I hate dolls and only accepted a Sindy because she had a horse! I think I had a Barbie horse too but no Barbie. Or was it two Sindy horses in different colours? I can remember one was chestnut and the other palomino but oddly enough I can't remember Sindy's hair colour. lol

  3. Everyone is different. I had a friend and she was mad about horses and had a big collection including tack.

  4. I had a Sindy doll as well. Must say they look better with clothes on rather than naked!!

  5. I never heard of Sindu's before reading your post, but I did have Barbie's. You did a great job on the clothes. No pattern? You are amazing! They even look happier.
    Blessings,

    1. I forgot about Pippa. Glad you reminded me. I think I only had one. Yes I agree the toys I had back then would be worth a lot.... If only we had known.
