Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12

Kuchie Classic
This design represents the clothing worn by a nomadic ethnic group of Afghanistan known as the Kuchies. Often seen tending to their sheep, Kuchie girls and women wear brightly colored outfits with dangling beads and bracelets. The artist for this outfit is Zora and the cost is $25. The colors look pink and purple in the pictures but they are actually red and blue.
Karzai Stripe
Afghan women and girls, especially in the rural areas, often decorate their clothing and houses with beautiful handiwork. The inset on the bodice of this dress is done in a variety of Afghan embroidery styles. The material used in the dress was favored by President Hamid Karzai for ceremonial robes. These traditional skills are kept alive as girls practice different kinds of embroidery by making coverings for tables and pillows.
The artist for this outfit is Enjelo and the cost is $25.

Rastagar-Woven traditions of Afghanistan
Punky Monkey Missions had a wonderful opportunity to acquire some beautiful, handmade outfits that were made in Afghanistan for 18" dolls like American Girls Dolls.
A little tag comes with each outfit and has the artists name and the design. Each says,
"Rastagar supports the work of more than twenty women, most of whom are the primary wage earners for their families. All of them have lived through the trauma of their husbands and other family members being maimed, tortured, traumatized or killed during the wars and so have left them as the sole providers for their families. They are strong women and they are survivors."
Not only are you helping support Punky Monkey Missions by purchasing a doll outfit but you are also helping support these women!
Each outfit is unique and different from all others and one of a kind. All outfits come with dress, pants, shoes and a head covering scarf called a burqa. If you would like to purchase an outfit for a special doll in your life email me at punkymonkeymissions@cox.net
