Images for Old Posts

To catch up to myself with images, here is the Paquita tutu for Barbie from this summer. My tutus are my own pattern combined from many Barbie bodices that came before me.

And here is Barbie's most recent knit acquisition, a rolled raglan sweater made as a "Barbie & Me" to match the sweater I made my 4-year-old for Christmas. THAT sweater is the only human-scale sweater I've ever made. I made it out of dishcloth yarn beacuse it was cheap enough to buy a lot even if the sweater didn't turn out and because I figure it will wear well for a child. The Barbie raglan is combination of a couple of sweaters in Knitting for Barbie by Nicky Epstein.

Last, here is my first completely finished Brazilian project from last summer. I've actually completed several more now. I began this particular one when above 4-year-old was only a few months old. I had learned Brazilian on a fishing vacation a couple of years before and re-visited it at a local class. I have now become a minor fanatic.

This is a nine-square sampler that won't quite fit on my scanner.
