Fun-to-Knit Doll Clothes

Découvrez le livre de 48 pages "Fun-to-Knit Doll Clothes" de Andra Knight-Bowman, paru il y a tout juste un mois (le 9 novembre 2009), consacré aux vêtements pour la poupée "American Girl", une poupée de 18 inches (45 cm), très célèbre outre-Atlantique... et pas encore très connue en France. En anglais.
