The Question of pants...

I started a pair of pants for the doll yesterday and I'm not quite sure if they are going to be the right style, so I might be knitting a different pair after these ones are done. I don't know yet. The goal for this week is to try and get the him, yes the doll is a him, stuffed. Not quite sure if this will be possible since it is a busy week but we shall see.

I do have another pattern for pants that I will have to modify if the first pair doesn't look right. Should be interesting either way. If nothing else it would give me some practice with the clothing if it doesn't work out. Though I really do feel like I am knitting something like a doctor who scarf while working on these pants with the start of 60 stitches. It made me laugh.

Starting to come together... or is it?

Look at all those body parts! Slowly but surely this one is starting to come together. Laying out the base body gives me an idea of exactly how tall this doll is going to be roughly when it is finished. More customization is on the way after I get this bugger stuffed so that I have a more accurate idea of how to add things such as ears.

Started on the pants today while I was out with the girls at the knitting group I am in since I finished the last arm off tonight. I am not looking forward to seaming the fingers at all but it is a task I have to do. I am getting a bit more excited on how it is going to look as well as ideas on how to modify this pattern.

Knitting...the Doll consumes me!

I have started a new project...to knit a doll. It is been an interesting task thus far! I have been knitting like a fiend so to speak. I have so far finished the body, one foot and one hand so far. So I have one hand one hand and one foot at least for main parts that I need to finish. There are other implements that I have work on to add since this is a custom doll that I am kind of flying by the seat of my pants for some of this. I do have a list of other doll ideas that I am want to work on if this one comes out well enough. This could be an interesting and lucrative venture in the long run so we will have to wait and see.
