This muneca\u00a0(doll) propped up on the couch is the second of a group I have acquired from a creative knitter, textile artist, who\u00a0sells her creations on a couple of the regular street markets in Montevideo.\u00a0 And, I think she has done a lovely job producing the unmistakeable Charlie Chaplin<\/em><\/span>.

When I asked, she told me she works out the patterns herself, and that each one this size, about 45cm, takes at least a whole day to make, often more \u00a0depending on the detail.\u00a0\u00a0Some of her designs require specific colours and patterns in their clothing which makes them more finnicky. \u00a0Some parts are machine knitted and other parts, the smaller segments of the design, are hand knitted.\u00a0The facial features of course, are stitched by hand.<\/p>\n
