New Year's Eve

A walk along the sea-shore wrapped in a woollen cloak against the cold wind.

Green dress

The green dress that I made for Ginny thankfully fits Cochineal. I added her black corset/belt, think it works well.

Another dress

More Noro Sekku yarn and I'm going to see how many dresses I can make out of one ball.
The greeny yellow one on the right is the first one.

Snow Pixie!



Trance is wearing a new hoody. It's the same style as the cardi I made for Opal but I added a hood. Knitted in Noro Sekku lace-weight yarn, shade #2.

More pictures!


Snow! Always a good opportunity to take more pictures. Rime is at home in the snow.

Anouk

Anouk trys on another Blythe sweater and it fits.





I think she likes it!

Another ribbed cardigan


I finished this cardigan for Rime a few days ago. It's the Dollswest pattern again but I adapted it to fit the DT elf body. Made it slightly larger and longer and also shortened the front band.
I love knitting with this Noro Sekku, it's always interesting.
I made a scarf from the leftovers.
This is shade #4, the rest of the ball from Dusty's jumper.

Looking back over this blog I came across this post. Big buttons and scarf - well I never, a theme that I have liked for a long time then.

This was going to be for one of the Supergem guys but I think the colour suits Longfellow best.


New jumper
Of course, if I'd known it was going to be for him, I would have knitted the sleeves a tad longer.

But it's too late now!
Longfellow
I think he likes it!

Small !

A free pattern for tiny dolls - 8" I think, though one measurement is for an 11" doll? Needle size is 4/0. I think I might try this later.

Black jumper

Doon is wearing the black ribbed jumper from eons ago! It is supposed to be an MSD sized sweater dress.

WIP: Noro Sekku again

I love this yarn a lot.
I'm making another big jumper - for one of my lads this time. Shade #2


And this is the start of a hooded dress for Doon. Shade #6

A glimpse of green



Dimity is wearing the green Scotty Maloney cardi. This is fast becoming a versatile little garment.

Sabrina in pink

Sabrina finally gets to wear the cardi I made for her. And doesn't she look good? It's a perfect fit.
Rowanspun 4-ply, Sugar and a Dollswest pattern. I added 16 rows extra to the sleeves as I'm not too keen on three-quarter length. I also did the cable up to the decreases on the fronts.

Dusty's jumper

Here is Dusty in his new jumper and I'm so pleased that it suits him. I think he looks amazing! I feel very proud.
Thank you Sally for the photo, it's so good to see.

WIP: for Dusty

This is another part of the swap. I've made a baggy jumper from Noro Sekku lace-weight yarn, shade #4 again. It's a mix of silk, cotton and wool and is so soft.

I've just finished pressing it.

New Blythe hoody

I made another Blythe hoody from left over sock yarn. I must admit I didn't enjoy knitting it, maybe the yarn was too thick, especially after just knitting with the thinner Noro. I haven't even taken a decent picture!!!

The socks fitted! Sally posted some pictures of Niamh wearing them.
I am happy to see these.


Tuesday 16 November 2010

Finished and posted!

I finished knitting the socks on the 10th. And today I sent them off. I do hope they fit and are liked.....

Two lace-weight jumpers

I like these very much. And so do Polly and Phoebe!

Blue stripes again.

Corina looks so pretty in blue.
