Fibrecraft Crochet and knitting for Dolls

Fibre-craft materials Corp was establised in 1953  and began by  manufacturing wood fibre for handcrafting artificial flowers.  By 1959 the company had expanded to mass-market retail outlets for arts and crafts supplies, floral supplies, doll supplies and decorative accessories.

This talented seller has made several of the Fibre-craft dolls clothes patterns and yes they are for sale and would make fabulous Xmas gifts.
