Would you believe I finally got up to the Piper this week.
And this week the girls requested that their Barbies be covered a little more and being the superstar mum that I am(and letting the washing pile up in the process) I knitted these up for them.

I did change needle size to 3.25mm and I used 4ply baby wool. I also cast off the undies/bikini bottom using 3.75mm as they were a bit hard for the girls to slide up and down.
Cheers, Sharine
Your cross stitch project is coming along beautifully! Love those little outfits for the barbies. Looks like very intricate work :)
ReplyDeleteWashing can wait!!! Especially at this time of the year when it can be dry while your hanging it out!!
ReplyDeleteWell done on finally reaching the Piper :o)
I love the little Barbie outfits! You are the best Mum!! :o)

ReplyDeleteWhoo Hoo he has arrived!!! How exciting it must have been to stitch a bit of red after all that sky and tree. He's great Sharine.

ReplyDeleteIt's looking awesome! That little bit of color just pops! Really looking forward to seeing more progress on this now that the piper has shown up.
ReplyDeleteYour girls will remember the Barbie outfits, but not the un-done laundry! Enjoy the girls while they are young-before you know it they are grown up and gone! (And you are a superstar Mom, lol)
