Sunday Summary - Knitting & Sewing

I have done quite a lot of knitting and sewing over the last couple of weeks.  Mostly for dolls other than Sasha, but also some for Sasha/Gregor.

I will show the Sasha/Gregor items first.

Blue hues, a pretty variegated cardigan, perfect with jeans or over a dress, and just in time for the cold weather! 

I love this wool and colour, I knitted a cardigan with it that I sold with a patchwork skirt and wished I'd kept it, so knitted a sweater with what I had left over.

This pretty dress was snapped up instantly!  They are such pretty colours and something a little different for Sasha.

I designed this simple 'Night Owl' sweater and can see me making some more of these.  Probably better for the more petite Sasha/Gregor, but Susan thinks it is great with jeans.

Knitted with lovely NZ 100%  Merino wool.

Getting ready for Christmas this is a really soft variegated yarn.

The dress that Maddison was modelling above also fitted Peggy Sue who is now disappointed to learn that it won't be hers!

Some pretty Christmas/Party dresses for American Girl dolls.

Lovely long cardigan for Peggy Sue

Which was eventually teamed with a skirt...

...and a knitted short sleeve top

Complete outfit.

I did quite a bit of 'tiny' knitting.

I made a few things for Mini American Girl Melody

This is one

This is another.

I knitted a little wardrobe for my childhood Perfekta doll who had been um, rather neglected for quite a few years and had no clothes!

I also did a little sewing...

This dress is probably going to be for Peggy Sue's birthday...

I also made some Hitty clothes.

A dress for Christmas (I have so far made two of these, one of which was an order)

Knitted a cardigan and made a skirt for Hitty Madge

Another dress (two made like this)

A dress for spring/summer (Two made)

Stripes!

I have also ventured into doll making.

Lucy, and as yet un-named.

Three little dolls for dolls (I want to make at least another two)

A little 6 1/2 inch doll  'Beth Ann' 

and finally my favourite so far, a Raggedy Ann style doll whom I have named Esme.  She is 10 inches tall.

Denim for Henry & Mini AG Trousers

Henry now has a Denim coat to take away with him, just in case he needs it if the weather gets slightly chilly...not very likely but it pays to be prepared.

He wanted a hood on it, but I'm not sure if this was quite what he had in mind!

I finished another little knitting item yesterday for the Mini American Girl

A pair of trousers to match the sweater.  Again a pattern of Hazel's.

Test Pattern Knitting for Mini American Girl Dolls.

As I mentioned on a previous post I have recently joined a couple of knitting groups on Ravelry.  I am really enjoying these groups and they have inspired me to do a lot more knitting.  

I've been having fun testing some patterns for a newly made friend, 'HazelRose' on Ravelry which will be available soon for Mini American Girl Dolls.  These cute little dolls are all of 6 1/2 inches tall.  The patterns are lovely and simple to make and because they are small knit up in super quick time.

First up is the cute little Gored Garter Stitch Skirt which is then teemed with:

A little sweater top.  

These patterns will soon be released as a little wardrobe set on Ravelry complete with pants and a little vest/waistcoat.  I will let you know when they are with the link.

More coming soon....
