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!!!

SophistiKit

Finally finished the "SophistiKit" cardigan by Dollswest, started this August. Once I got into the pattern, it went very quickly and I really enjoyed knitting it. I will do this pattern again.

Though I made it in mind for Sabrina, I couldn't resist trying it on Doon first.

Nearly finished!


Nearly finished!, originally uploaded by pacific_rin.

Just the sewing up to do. Huh, just!!

This jumper has taken me 4 months to knit. Size 00000 needles and very thin elastic yarn. I had to look at every stitch. There is a skirt in this kit using 4/0 but I don't know if I will do it - the yarn is black!

I just hope this will fit one of my dolls now.

Feminine

I'm on a roll, I've finished another Dollswest pattern - this one is a little crop cardigan with "lacey" trim. I love this eau de nil shade and think it looks very pretty on Dimity.
