Tea With Shira Episode #9: Dress Up Your American Girl Dolls with Nicky Epstein!

In this episode of Tea with Shira,  I had the pleasure of hanging out with designer Nicky Epstein! We talked about her new book, Enchanted Knits for Dolls.

A fun fact about Nicky is that she is an amazing baker! Unfortunately, you can’t try the amazing brownies she made me but, don’t worry, I ate enough for everyone.

We talked about how she got into the world of dolls.  You may know her now for making clothes for 18-inch dolls, but she started out making knitted patterns for Barbies!

I own Nicky’s first book on knitting for Barbie^® and I got her to re-sign it for me. Watch the episode to find out what her note to me says!
