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!

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.

Winter Wonderland

Dimity in my favourite Tonner cardigan.



Treacle in her new stripey sweater

Tuula and Coco Rosy, bears and rainbows.



Scottie wearing Leo's sweater - and oversized socks.

Knits for Sally

Pink hoody for Fluff, turquoise lacey cardigan for Jamie and forest green socks for Rowan.

Elvincraft hoody

This yarn was a lot finer than I thought so this hoody came out quite small - it just about fits Opal. Lovely yarn to knit with though. I really like the striping effect.

Cable Hoody!

Knitted this hoody from a Dollswest pattern (#155). Though I used the same size needles and yarn weight it looks rather large for an msd, especially that hood!
A friend wondered if it will fit her doll so we have done a trade.

Edit: It fits my friend's doll perfectly and suits her so well!

New knits for unoas

Trance is wearing a ruffle edge tunic based on my SD sized cardi/belly flasher! I made it longer and added an edging to the bottom. I haven't decided about front fastening yet.

Jemini is wearing a hooded vest - (which I finished knitting in May and have only just made-up!). I think this will look great in the winter over a long sleeved t.shirt or Sally's bodysuits.
I based this on a Rowan pattern from yonks ago.

I'm getting behind with finishing.
Clockwise - 2 msd size roll-neck jumpers, SD size "fit 'n' flare" jumper, striped dress for Karrosel, striped hoody (msd), short sleeve crop cardi (msd).

Hoody for Smilla

I've made a sixth-scale hoody from a Scotty Maloney kit. I think if I make it again I will use the next needle size down.

Still, I think Smilla looks quite good in it.

Blythe knitting

I made another jumper for Robynn a couple of days ago. Used some left over sock yarn - Lorna's Laces in Baltic Sea. Very pretty colours and it goes so well with her corduroy skirt and woolly tights.



I also added buttons to the pink hoody. I found an envelope that had spare buttons from Per Una. The hoody is too small though, next time I will use the recommended needle size!





I enjoy knitting these little Blythe sweaters.

Cosy Leo

Leo is wearing a cosy hoody last seen on this blog here

Wild Rice Hoody

Here is a favourite piece of Tonner clothing - the Wild Rice Hoody from the 2004 Winter White Boutique collection.



It fits my Sharmin doll very well.



I've always liked this picture of her.

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.

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!!!

Cape!

I've knitted Doon a short hooded cape (my own pattern). I was going to make a jacket but then thought a short cape would be much more Doon's style. I enjoyed doing the fair-isle section!

Hoody - finished

Here's our mod girl. Brmmmm, brmmmmm.

She does look funny!!!

Hoody WIP

I'm knitting Robynn a hoody now. The pattern was a free download on Ravelry.
I'm using Regia Kaffe Fassett Design Line sock yarn.
The hood part was fun to do and I've made an opening for Robynn's hair to pull through, inspired by another Blythe knitter on Flickr.

Blending in.

Longfellow is watching the football.

The result - good!

And here are snaps from the doll meet and Kalia's new hoody fits!





I also made Flynn a couple of scarves and Kalia is wearing one here.



This is the other scarf - a curly whirly one made in kidsilk haze.
