You may have seen this little dress on my BFF's blog,
Our Cozy Abode a while back. I made this and sent it to her for Christmas. She is my mentor for knitting, and is an expert at it! I hadn't done any knitting for many, many years so I had forgotten how to do a lot of it. With her help and a lot of YouTube I have progressed in this skill and I enjoy it so much.

| As you can see, it is small... I used a variegated yarn, so they all come out a little different... |

| I have completed these two this week and I am working on a third one now. These three will be for my sisters. They will still need the embroidery done on them, once the knitting is complete. So far, I made one for my friend, two for her nieces, two for my twin sisters for their birthdays, one for my Mom, a red crochet cotton one that I still have, and a pink one that got marks on it when I blocked it. So you see, I do really like making them. I will need to make two more for my daughters, after this latest one is complete. Oh, and then probably two more for my granddaughters! I see lots of little dresses in my future.😊 So much fun!! What do you do for fun? Edited to add: The pattern that I use for the dresses is by Cindy Rice Designs. I love the patterns that she has designed for dolls! Go check out her website if you are looking for some really cute patterns. 'Til next time, Love ya, Jean |

The little dresses are just beautiful! I love them!
My oh my!!Such tiny dresses! I can't knit but I'm sure this was tedious work. Do you plan to make a doll to go with the dresses?
Oh, I love these little dresses. I can imagine that some of your dolls may soon be wearing knitted cardigans on chilly winter days.
You did such a wonderful job knitting these! They are just adorable and I am sure all of the lucky recipients are delighted to get one! I have a few books on knitting and no matter how hard I tried, my project was not coming out right. Thank goodness for youtube. I typed in my pattern info and found a video that help me learn the right way. I was knitting if backwards! LOL Now I can kint thanks to all of the info on these videos! Cant wait to see what you make next!
Thank you, Ladies , for all the sweet comments... I am on little dress number 10 as we speak. I'm thinking they will make sweet gifts for my loved ones. I think they will like them. Thanks for visiting!
