WIP Wednesday - Doll Clothes Pattern by Red Heart

I'm still crocheting don't worry but I'm totally obsessed with knitting doll clothes right now! 

With Valentines coming I thought this fun 

Love My Doll Sweater from Red Heart Yarns 

was perfect. 

I was able to practice color changing which was a challenge. 

The Sweater pair's nicely with the Sparkle Christmas skirt too! 

I want to make more of those skirts in some neutral colors! 

This next set was so fun to make! My Daughter (age 6) and I like to browse Pinterest and Raverly for Doll Clothes! I have a million things saved! She picked out this next set 

Doll Robe and Bunny Slippers pattern also from Red Heart Yarns

I love that it used worsted weight yarn. I used Hobby Lobby's I Love This Yarn in the Colorway Lemon Ice. She requested I leave off the hood, which was good because I totally messed up when I made it. I just didn't read the directions correctly and I had to unravel it! oops! I still like it with out it. 

My favorite part was making the fun little bunny slippers. 

They were so easy to make. 

Worked up supper fast too! I'll have to make more of just the slippers for her dolls. 

They slide right on and fit perfectly. Some of the shoes she has are difficult to put on and 

I could use lots of scrap yarn to make lots of slippers or boots! 

It's easy to adjust the height of the slippers.  

I think the set turned out great! she requested a 2nd set in another color for her other doll but I have something else on my needles already for Valentines Day! I can't wait to show you once it's finished!

WIP Wednesday: 18 inch Doll Clothes

I've recently become obsessed with knitting doll clothes for my Daughters 18 inch dolls. She has couple. I bought one about 5 years ago for myself at Target called the Our Generation Line, as I'd intended to design some dolly and me hats but I went another direction with my business designs and gave her the doll.  Now that my Daughter is older she was given and American Girl Doll for her B-day last year from her Oma. She plays with it all the time so I started making her some new outfits per her request! 
This is really when I started to enjoy knitting. I just prefer the look of the knit clothes on the doll.  Here is what I've made so far! 
Good news too is these are all free Knit patterns! 

Newsboy Cap for American Girl/Boy Dolls pattern by Debonair Designs

I love this hat! it's only the 2nd knit hat I'd ever made and it turned out great! It's well written and I like that it used Caron Simply Soft. I have a lot of it to use up! 

 Next up is my 1st ever knit garment! I fell in love with this dress in Raverly. 

It's called Sunshine Lollipops Pattern by Kristen Rettig 

I love the construction of the dress. It's worked top down in the round and I just love all the picot edging! It's a great starter dress if you are just learning to knit like me. 

I just love this! Maybe because purple is my favorite color! 

This was a fun set to make. 

Around December of course I had to make something Christmassy. I'm trying to only use the yarn I have on hand in my stash right now which is plenty. haha! I found a skein of I Love This Yarn Holiday Sparkle. 

I made Kit's Christmas Cape by Cathy Bird and 

the Skirt is a great basic skirt from a fun set on my to do list called 

Huckleberry Friend by Kristen Rettig

My Daughter had been asking for a doll purse! I'd found graph with the heart design which I can't remember where I found it. (sorry) but I basically made up the square into a purse for the doll. I made  one square, pickup of stitches on the bottom to make the opposite side and then I added ribbing around the top and added a handle. It turned out super cute and was fun just to make it up. 

It's been so fun making all these! I have a few more sets on my needles too! I'll share those next week!  

Oh and be sure to check out my two designs I have for dolls!
