Knitting for Bitty Baby

When my friend Lynn told me she was planning to buy a Bitty Baby doll for her three-year-old grand daughter, I asked if she'd mind if I did some knitting for the doll.

Lynn thought that was a good idea, so that's what I've been doing for the past couple of weeks. I've found several free doll clothes knitting patterns on the web.

So far Bitty Baby has a dress, two rompers (which I think are adorable, to be honest), a hooded cardigan, a sleeveless cardigan (because I ran out of yarn), and a blanket. If Bitty Baby is going to live in Maine, she's going to need warm clothes, for heaven's sake!

I'm thinking I might attempt to make the doll a Moses basket, too. I'll use clothesline rope, as I used for the baskets I made this past spring. I think it'll work just fine.

We shall see.
