Needlework: Hooded Sweater, Blanket and American Girl Doll Sweater
Once again, here is the hooded zip-up sweater from Columbia Minerva Book 766 "Beautiful Baby Book", Infants to Four Years available on amazon.com . The pattern is "Jack Frost". The blanket is simply alternating sections of stockinette stitch and garter stitch, with a border of garter stitch. In addition, I made a somewhat matching American Girl doll sweater from "Knits for Girls and Dolls" by Charlene Schurch also available on amazon.com. I am linking to many of these BLOG PARTIES
Oh my goodness, I love it all, but especially the sweater for the American Girl doll! My daughter would have loved it for her Samantha doll, but she's 21 now, so I guess she wouldn't really be interested, would she?! Happy REDnesday! Carol
wonderful! These are really fun... I think my daughter would love that American Girl sweater for her doll!!! Thanks for having us over for Rednesday! Mica from The Child's Paper
Really cute Roberta! Congrats on the sponsor mention on Trendy Treehouse - I've added your button. Would love for you to add this to my Craftastic Monday party this week:)
That's a darling project. What little girl wouldn't love to have that (and what mother could resist it for her?) It just makes me smile -- red is my daughter's fav color. She's 22 now though. Thank you for sharing this on the Boardwalk Bragfest.
What beautiful sweaters! I can crochet a scarf. I knitted the front of a sweater once, in 1985 and never learned how to make the arms. You people who can knit like this amaze me. How lovely!
Hi! I love your website. What a beautiful project. I love that the doll has a matching outfit! I host a link up party called TOT TUESDAYS every Tuesday where people share their recipes, crafts and activities for toddlers. I’ve also currently got a giveaway for a Mother Earth scarf at the moment. I hope you’ll stop by:
