Sweater dress

Pretty sweater dresses by Dale Zentner.




They remind me of these ones made by Nideru back in 2002. I used to have 4 of these, wish I had kept them.

Pinafore

Inspired by this picture to make a knitted version with braces for Anouk. Need to look through my old doll patterns.

A beret.

Karrosel wears a beret from an Ann Estelle doll. It's over sized but she does look cute in it.




I should count the stitches and knit my own. But I have tried before, a couple of years ago and failed!

Keeping warm.

Happy New Year!

A sprinkling of snow in the night. Lorelei wraps up warm in her hand-knitted hat and scarf. These two were made by Mio and were a free gift when I bought some clothes from her.



Lorelei is also wearing the cream sweater with rose embroidery.

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.
