Victoria


Victoria's tardiness was caused entirely by my seeming inability to knit 20 simple rows to ensure that something I have knitted 40 odd times, does actually work.
It does.
6 sizes from newborn to 6 years
instructions for DK and 4 ply (fingering) yarn
instructions for stripes or plain
Victoria now for sale at my website via Ravelry

Playing with dolls

just to divert your attention away from the fact that the Clipper pattern still hasn't been graded, and that the Victoria pattern is being held up by my inability to knit 20 rows...

say Hi to the Dolly Mixture Collection: sizes 1,2, 4, 6, 8 years


the cardigan - which would look just as cute without the intarsia




the scoop neck vest with action in the front

and the back!


and the skirt - which you met a while back - it's been waiting for me to finish.

I'm trialling something new with this set - a "limited licence"

It means that while this design is my property and you can't sell or lend the pattern to anyone, you can now sell the garments you make from the pattern - as long as you are an individual doing it for your own gain (my existing licence gives people permission to knit a certain number of garments for charity) e.g. you can sell finished garments on www.toggle.co.nz, or www.etsy.com and other online marketplaces or craft fairs, just be sure to credit the design to me on the sales tag or website.
