Last week, I started making a little Barbie dress, using a pattern called "Summer Sorbet Dress for Barbie". It was fun to make, using Bernat Baby yarn.


Blocking the hem with straight pins:

And trying it on Barbie:

And here's the wrap I've been working on for a couple years. I used some vintage wool pompadour yarn to make it.
I just finished seaming together the two parts today:

Next, I got it wet, then spun it to dry in the washer. (Even as old as it is, it STILL smelled of sheep when it got wet.) Now, it's blocking. Hope it turns out well!


Next, I grabbed a baby hat I've been making, and finished it up too. Amazing.

I think I'll see what other unfinished projects I can find in my craft room. I'm on a ROLL!
:D

Nathalie, the pattern for the Barbie dress is free online. But Geocities is closing down soon, so if you want the pattern, you'd better grab it quick!
Connie, I hope I can come to KnitNuts too. It's on my calendar! :D
