12 days to go until Christmas and the knitted gifts are coming along quite nicely.
First up is the felted clog from the fiber trends pattern. Knit out of Cascade 220, color number 9454. These are going to the sister-in-law but I also purchased some more Cascade 220 in color number 9413 (a mixture of green and black) last night at the Sip N Knit Pajama Party to make my own pair this winter.
Next, finished just this morning, is the Funshine outfit for Bitty Baby. Niece Sierra is a fan of both American Girl and Care Bears so we attempted to meld the 2 together and I must say I am very happy with the results. I used the hoodie pattern I designed for the American Girl doll and used one size down for needles, shortened the arms and it fit. I also modified the front to include the signature Care Bear belly white and then came back later with duplicate stitch for the sun. Skirt is a simple tube with a rib waist and picot edge and socks are from the wonderful sock pattern designed by Judy Gibson.
Back to the needles, still have a couple of projects to finish.
