Tiny Knitting

 This week has been mostly about 'tiny' knitting - making things for the small dolls.  



Poppy (My Heartstrings Jackie) has been the lucky recipient of several new items.

This apricot dress which the white cardigan I made last week should go with nicely.


A blue dress, cardigan and hat.


A pastel stripes dress


A cotton cardigan.  



Thomas got a hat to go with his sweater.  


Kit got a dress and hat.


Melody got a little hat to go with her outfit knitted last year.


Sindy got a new blue dress.



Anka, my Polish girl, who I am going to be making a wardrobe for, received a new skirt, sweater and hat.


Madeline had a hat made to match her jacket.


Plus a new dress, using leftovers of my NZ Merino, alpaca, possom mix wool.


Pixie got a dress with 'fancy' hem which is what she wanted.

On to the slightly bigger dolls.

I finished the charity outfits for the Corolle Les Cheries.


I teamed the little top and cardigan with a pair of trousers.


Plus the dress already made last week.



I've also included an outfit that consists of a top, skirt and cardigan (these were actually made last year)





As I now have to started doing other things in preparation of my trip home to NZ I will stop at these three little sets, unless I get a chance to whip up anything else in the next week.



Peggy Sue wanted a pink hat in the same style as the little ones hats.  So her wish was my command!


I also made this dress, which is now listed in my Etsy Shop 'Muriel Makes

What have I made in the last fortnight?

I belong to several knitting groups on Ravelry and one of them holds a yearly KAL for the Charity Stitchin for Kids.  You can knit or sew items and I have been doing a combination of both.


So far I have knitted this little dress.

 

A little top


Which of course needs a little cardigan to go over it.

I plan to make a pair of trousers/pants or a skirt to go with this and several other items to make up the package I will be sending.
  

I have also done some knitting for my Etsy Shop.


A pretty little dress that fits Corolle Les Cheries, as well as Hearts for Hearts and Wellie Wishers dolls.


The back does up with a couple of buttons.


Candy Floss - this dress is now sold.

I have knitted some sweaters for my Sasha and Gregor dolls.


Rory loves his new sweater.


This was knitted with some of my lovely 100% NZ Merino wool and as a delight to knit with.



Everlee is pretty pleased with her 'hoodie' as she calls it.




I've also knitted some clothes for the tinies.


A little cardigan for Poppy.




A sweater for Thomas.


This was knitted with a lovely soft mix of NZ Merino, Possom and Alpaca yarn.


Plus a dress for Madeline.
