As an exclusive for the Carmel Doll Shop Boutique, Jeffrey Cook of Maison Jeffrey has created a period accurate 1840’s Scottish ensemble for our dear “Albert,” Carl Armstrong’s exclusive KPM reproduction china boy.
Inspired by the Victorian passion for all things Scottish, the “Lad of the Glen” costume features a kilt and sash made from Royal Stewart plaid wool, a velveteen jacket, belt, shirt, and a “Glengarry” hat. A special added accessory is a miniature faux fur sporran, trimmed with steel beads. The patterns and materials are available for your sewing pleasure in a complete kit which includes a full-color, paper pattern with full instructions and all of the materials needed to create the ensemble. To create the charming costume, the set includes materials and patterns for the following:

Shirt: Lengths of fine white cotton batiste, black suede ribbon, one tiny mother of pearl button.

Kilt: Length of Royal Stewart wool plaid, black seam binding, two hooks.

Jacket: Lengths of soft black velveteen, fine black lining cotton, seven bright silver finish buttons.

Sash and Belt: Length of Royal Stewart wool plaid, one silver finish buckle.

Glengarry Hat: Cardstock hat form, Royal Stewart plaid wool bias strip, soft black velveteen, fine black lining cotton. Lengths of black grosgrain ribbon and black suede ribbon.

Sporran: Pieces of plush black faux fur, black lining silk, silver finish frame and chain, steel beads, length of black cotton cord.

Also included are three small spools of thread in white, red and black.
