Momoko

I love this cardigan on Momoko! It's a "boyfriend" size for Blythe and fits Momo well. Think I will make more.

Two Dollswest knits for Unoa

Trance is wearing "Durango" sweater and Jemini is wearing the "starfish" cardi - both patterns by Dollswest.











Durano is knitted with the softest Malabrigo laceweight in Bobby Blue. Though the pattern is very effective I didn't enjoy knitting it and struggled with the changing knit and purl texture.



The cable cardigan that I call "starfish" is in Regia Hand Dye Effect sock yarn and Jamieson and Smith Shetland laceweight.

MSD Knitwear

I have spent nearly all this week making up and sewing on poppers and buttons, getting ready for a doll meet at the weekend.





This pattern always surprises me, it looks so small when being knitted and then after it's sewn up it looks smaller still, I never think it will fit a msd size doll but it does!



I started knitting this in 2011! And then I got into a hate relationship with Kid Silk Haze and so left this.
We're all sorted now and I finished it easily!!! It's too short for Meridian but I think the hood looks cute on her.



I really enjoy knitting these roll-neck sweaters (Dollswest pattern).



Favourite colours!

Two fair-isles

The brown one is from a Scotty Maloney kit that I bought years ago. It's sized for an 18" vinyl doll like Kitty Collier.


The black and red one is a heavily adapted Dollswest pattern.

It's raining again....

I've just finished making up a sweater for Longfellow. I actually knitted it while watching the London Olympics on telly, in the Summer, but didn't get around to sewing it up until now.



It's in Regia Hand-dye Effect sock yarn, quite thick for a doll jumper but it looks to scale once knitted!

Brown!!

The latest guy in gets to try that brown jumper.

Windswept

It's that brown jumper again! I think all of my lads have worn this now.

Brown!

I have had a love of brown knitwear ever since I was at school. I was always sorry that our school uniform wasn't brown, though perhaps if it was then I wouldn't be so passionate about the colour now!
I remember a friend had a lovely nut-brown cable cardigan, I was so envious.

And so when I come across pictures of brown jumpers and cardigans, I stop and stare and adore.




I came across this little set today - made by megipupu. It is delightful and I also like the browns and blues in the patchwork background.



This is also fab with the cables and I like the dark brown with the flowers and the deep rust hair.

Another brown jumper picture!

Brown cardigan

Not my photo - a picture found on Flickr by Jillybug. I just love brown knitwear for dolls. This little Blythe is fab.

What brown jumper?

A mix of woollies - hat by UgliKnits, jumper by Bobon doll and scarf by Ajumapama.

The same UgliKnit hat on Fleur in February 2005, (with a ByChesca jumper).

It's that brown jumper again!

Here it is on Seina. I love this girl so much!

Interesting top

Another picture of Cynthia P's dolls. I love this brown openwork knitted top with the net frill attached.

Beautiful knitwear.

Cynthia P. does beautiful handknits for the Dollshe lads.

I love these two. (not my photos)

Little Brown Jumper

The last post reminded me about this brown jumper made by Bobondolls. It has been a favourite over the years, worn by lots of different dolls.
