Promise the mermaid

just had to show her to you...i finished up a custom doll last night! i had the best time working with this Mama to make just the right doll for her daughter.
this little mermaid's hair is primarily made of handspun (overspun by me to give it a funky twirly look...the roving came from Chimera on Etsy). the rest is deep brown lopi, for depth of color(direct from Iceland!), and pink and purple mohair from a sweet little knit shop right down the street.
