Knitting for little dolls may be tedious, but I love the instant (almost) gratification! I saw this yarn in a semi-local big box store and liked the colors... I was surprised as I grew up wearing knitted garments my mom made from the local dime store variety of yarn and swore never to use it myself!! Tacky acrylics; bleh! This yarn is 70% superwash wool/30% nylon, which should wear well if made up into a pair of socks!

Seeing this sock yarn made me pick up a skein to see how it worked up. A bit thicker than most sock yarns that I use, and a bit coarser. But I DO love the color shading! The sweater is an all-over mock cable with stockinette sleeves, reverse stockinette yoke, and 2x2 rib collar. The design is technically a work in progress, as it is slightly smaller than I wanted it to be... sigh.....

But the doll is happy in the coat of many colors!
