Puki’s White Christmas

Here is the first of my winter white sweater dresses. Sugar wanted to go first, so I told her that would be fine if it was okay with the others, and it was.

Sugar is wearing white lace tights too.

Patsy in “Holiday Holly”

Here is my Patsy modeling her first ever Christmas ensemble made for her by me!  This Christmas ensemble will also fit 10″ Ann Estelle and her friends.

Starting the Weekend Off Early

I got up early this morning to finish knitting a sweater dress and surprisingly caught sight of the beautiful sunrise.

sunrise 300I guess I needed a little break from Christmas colors because I picked up this ball of hot pink wool a couple of days ago.  I am almost finished, a few more rows to go.  This is for the Little Darlings and it is the same style as the winter white sweater dress I just showed you yesterday in the group shot (minus the “fur” trim).
