A sort of new start

Hi All,

I started H for Hyacinth this week which is sort of a new start on an ongoing project.

And I got a most of the black finished on this page of Faery Tales.Still looking wonky as always lol.

Also finished these, what I thought were pant and jumper sets for my girls only to have them correct me by saying that what I had made are pajamas .
I get most of my patterns off here all for free. The only thing I find is if I knit with there recommended  needle size the girls have trouble getting the clothes on and off so usually I go up a couple of needle sizes( I think they recommend 2mm and I knit with 3.25mm) and add a button on the back so they open instead of seeming them straight up.

And after having a poke around Etsy I also brought two patterns of Vintage Knitnak I got the Robin Hood and Little Bo Peep outfits.

Hope everyone has a great weekend, Sharine

  4. Your Fairy Tales is getting to the finish line! I have followed the progress on this from the beginning. What an undertaking. The Barbie outfits are darling. I remember my mom making our Barbie Doll clothes, it's not an easy task.
