Lucy Lavender

Lucy Lavender is a sweet little  girl full of fun and mischief. The pattern was designed by Dollytime. I love the timeless appeal of her knitted dolls. Her patterns are well written and easy to follow. Doll making is a great way to use up left overs from crochet blankets...

I think Lucy needs a little friend to play with...

Romeo

This is Romeo, an adorable little bear designed by Mary Jane's Tearoom. I had so much fun knitting him that, I'm afraid, I got slightly distracted from other projects... This pattern was very well written and I would recommend anyone interested to have a go. I have used the recommended yarn which is King Cole Alpaca DK, incredibly soft although a bit pricey... I might, later on, attempt a girl version of this teddy, using different yarns.

Since knitting Romeo, I have been a bit obsessed with making little people. I'll tell you more about it in my next post...
