Although I first intended just to look for patterns, I ended up looking at clothes for other similar sized dolls including MGA Moxie Girlz and Bratz, as I thought I may find something suitable . . . I did look, but didn't like the fit or quality of the clothes I saw.
I did find (according to online research) clothing from Barbie’s younger sister Skipper, also typically fits Ruruko dolls quite nicely, and there are many individuals reselling Skipper clothes or advertising patterns (which was more of interest to me as I'm more inclined to sew).
There are also quite a few Etsy sellers who design for Blythe rather than for Ruruko specifically, but much of the clothing works interchangeably, with perhaps adjustment for length. My favourite being HelloCoolCat, they've been around a long time and have an extensive array of products including super duper shoes/boots (all under AU$20 a pair).
Then quite by accident, I came across this site ~ TheHandFlower and she had a few clearance items which were intended for the Azone PureNeemo Small Body, but I bought a set anyway.
Not perfect by any means and there will be Velcro to deal with for sure, but for the price I paid (AU$22.20 including shipping), I figure I can make any necessary adjustments.
Well that's it for me for another week.
Big Hugs to you all,

P.S. I thought you might like to see what the knitted dress I made for the Project Mc² dolls looks like on Ruruko. I almost surprised myself, because it looks much better than I thought it would. It's actually knee length when you look straight at her. I think if I used my pattern but knitted it in a slightly lighter yarn, it would be perfect for this size doll.
