Weekend knitting

Weekend knitting

Finished one sleeve of the SD guy sweater.
A Blythe cardi using up the last of a favourite sock yarn. (keeping this).
Finished the roll neck sweater (msd size) for upcoming Valentines maybe?
Another basic top down raglan, also msd size. (knitted most of this while watching Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol).

Stripes and cables

Jemini and Trance

These two jumpers are my most favourite doll jumpers that I've ever knitted. (DWD pattern). I was inspired by a Patricia Roberts sweater that combined stripes and cables and so adapted the pattern.

I knitted this simple top-down raglan over two evenings using Fortissima Mexico sock yarn on size 2mm needles.

My progress yesterday!

My progress yesterday..

So, because I really wanted to read "The 39 Steps", (which is brilliant, by the way!), I started three new projects as I wanted to do plain knitting while reading.

Dark green is for Super Gem/Dollshe size.
Lime green is SD size.
Pink is MSD size.

WIP

wip: dolly knits

Okay, I haven't done very much since my last wip photo. This is still knitting to finish, sewing up to do, buttons and poppers to put on.
And this doesn't include half finished S.M. kits either!
I see there are still cardigans and a dress made early last year that still need sewing up and/or buttoning.

Lime

I did make Smilla another hoody, slightly adapting a Scotty Maloney pattern and using SM yarn. I like this colour on her.

I made one for a friend at the end of 2011 for her Dollmore doll, but the sleeves were too long.
Here is Smilla modelling it.

Snapshot!

Taken late at night - I was playing with my camera settings for a change and I like the weird colours and light in this.

Balalaika is wearing the SM basic green cardigan with an Ajumapama skirt. I think she looks so cute.

Leo is wearing the red cardigan that I made for Dimity a few years ago.
Shorts by Sally.

I do like this cardigan! It also suits Balalaika.

Orangey goodness

I made another one last summer for Jo.




And here it is on her doll. Thank you Jo!
