Tester Barbie Outfit

I got the Brother HK840 up and running and here is her first completed project, a pullover sweater and the long pull on skirt. What a breeze to make, I just kind of eyeballed it all, the body of the sweater is one piece and the sleeves were knit from the shoulders down, the skirt was just a rectangle with a thin cord of elastic for the waist, seamed up the back and hemmed. Viola! You sock knitters out there might recognize the yarn as Knit Picks Simple Stripes sock yarn :) Now if I could just find my punch cards so I can test that out!!!

Christmas Pillowghan

Well, finally! I finished the pillowghan for E.J.'s boss. It really shouldn't take this long, but I ran out of green yarn, and our Wal-Mart isn't the greatest for keeping a good stock of items on their shelves. Then there are all the other projects that I let side track me.... Anyway, I hope she likes it. I used the Toyota 610, the pillow pocket is a two color tuck pattern. That was really fun to do and I really like the way it turned out too. I'll be using that stitch pattern for more items.
