P&P

Polly is trying on the pale blue and white striped jumper. This is like the navy & white one (pattern by Dollswest). I really like this pattern and want to do more.



Phoebe is wearing the Scotty Maloney green cardigan. The sleeves are a little short for her but I think she looks cute in it.

Fluffy.




I made another sweater from the Dollswest free pattern, this time in Rowan Kid Silk Haze, colour Liqueur. Both Lorelei and Lichen tried it on. I think I prefer the fit on Lichen. (top left)

Sparkle

I started knitting this dress when I was doing Twinkle's dresses - the idea was that it was going to be her party dress. But the lurex yarn was slow going to knit with plus I had to do it on bigger needles. I picked it up again this week to finish and made the sleeves a bit wider to fit over a Petite's hands.

And here it is on Maple - and perfect for her too!

orange and pink

This is the skirt I made for Anouk (DT Ganga) at the beginning of the year. I no longer have this doll so tried the skirt on Doon. It fits and is quite quirky on her.

Finished!

Max is wearing a basic cardigan from a Scotty Maloney knitting kit, that I had finished all the knitting for years ago. But never made it up. Finally, here it is.




I wonder if the sleeves were supposed to be three-quarter length???

New wool

My yarn diet is well and truly broken now as I have just bought 4 more balls of Noro Sekku from ebay. Shades 2, 6, 8 and 4 again as a friend wants a jumper.

Noro Love

I also bought 3 balls of Rowan Kidsilk Haze from another friend. Funny, this wool was originally mine and I sold her a whole pile of it many years ago.

Kidsilk Haze

All this is going to make some great dolly knits.
