“I’m a Santa Helper”

“I’m a Santa Helper”, says my Little Darling, Gina. She is indeed wearing all of the jingle bells and whistles to get herself noticed by Santa Claus. Gina even has a tiny present to add to the pile for good little girls and boys.

Gina’s hand knit sweater dress is made from Peruvian Highland wool in winter white. The “fur” trim at the hemline is knit with mohair/silk. The asymmetrical waistline embroidery depicts holly, berries, and blue spruce branches. Of course, Gina cannot help Santa without a Santa hat. This one is in deep red wool with a hand made pom pom, jingle bell, organza bow, and a heart bead decorating the tip of the hat.

The red bell decorations continue on the bracelet, necklace and as a decoration on Gina’s tiny gift.

“A White Christmas”

And now one for my tiniest tiny, Amelia Thimble.

Amelia’s jingly Christmas set is hand knit with lace merino yarn. Her dress is knit in an off white and her Santa hat is knit with yarn that I hand dyed to a light red or berry-ish color. The fuzzy mohair/silk yarn adds a Santa-like “fur” band of trim.

The hand embroidered motifs are itty bitty (just like Amelia Thimble), but oh, so festive.

Here is Amelia Thimble posing with Sugar shortly after I completed their winter white sets, happy girls. They cannot wait to help Santa this year!

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’s dress is hand knit with off white merino lace yarn. The “fur” trim is knit with mohair/silk lace. Her little embroidered Christmas motif is of holly and greens placed asymmetrically at the waistline.
