Astrid was dressed by a grandmother who lives in a tiny log house near the Hardanger fjord in Norway. All the long winter the grandmother dresses dolls to sell to the tourists the next summer. She enjoyed sewing for Astrid for she thought the doll looked like her grandchild, Borghild, who lives with her.
The grandmother trimmed Astrid's black, woolen skirt with red braid and knitted her red woolen stockings. She sewed colored beads on Astrid's bodice and cap. The beads sparkle like Christmas tree ornaments.
