happy pie day
new year new post
last year was weird to say the least! it was hard to find anything to post about, and after a while i didn’t even try. here’s hoping this year goes better. what better way to start it, than by jumping down the rabbit hole of a new eatsleepknit yarnathon? once again i am trying to make it fit into my dolly plans, we’ll see if i do a better job this year….
the first fkal of the year is this cute sweater
by tif neilan.
since we are allowed to change the yarn weight, i am going to try knitting it in lace weight for meg. the real question is, can i actually follow a pattern without making any changes?
happy star wars day!
i got crystal’s new baby yoda costume done just in time for star wars day
the ears are so big, she has trouble getting through doors, but she loves it anyway 🙂
crickets blue cape
cricket got a new cape as well,
i love how this one turned out!
she is standing on the seat of an old stage coach. she wanted to ride inside but they have it taped off till the state of emergency is over 🙁
annalise plays little red riding hood
we went for a walk around the neighborhood today. annalise thought she saw a wolf, and scrambled up a tree. luckily it was just a friendly german shepherd out for a walk as well, i think she has been reading too many fairy tales 😉
moss stitch pixie hat
made kiri a new spring hat. she seems to like it 🙂
she picked one of my newly covered spools to perch on
new years resolutions?
i had decided i was going to forgo the esk yarnathon this year and instead only knit stuff that has been in my design queue this year, but as usual as soon as the kals and badges are posted i start scheming to see which ones i can re-work for my dolls :doh
nandi is going through a mori-girl stage, so she asked for this wrap and hood
cricket fell in love with this basket and wants it as a bed/nest
and i fell in love with this project for me. i’m planning to do it colors that coordinate with my craft room and knit up some new/favorite stitches for reference/wall art
i’m sure there will be a few more things once the girls make up their minds!

a bjd advent – dec 23 – baking day
the girls got together to make the christmas cookies today
meg got out their new aprons, then kiri and eilidh set up
next they mixed the batter
after they rolled out the dough the little ones cut out the cookies
i was going to take pretty pictures of the cookies they made, but unfortunately with so many kids in the house, all that was left was a few crumbs 🙂
a bjd advent – dec 22 – peace candle
for the last sunday of advent, dovey got to light the candle
The fourth candle represents peace and is called the “Angel’s Candle.” The angels announced that Jesus came to bring peace–He came to bring people close to God and to each other again.
