Follow Up - Itsy Bitsy Knitsy

Soooooo! I am so excited that I managed to finish that darn thing and submit it for review. I didn't win, or even get an honorable mention but I DO HAVE THIS!

The contest was to win one of the most beautiful dolls in the world by Marina. They can be seen on her website: www.enchanteddoll.com

Evidence! It is actually touching a doll - AND - despite not having a dolly of my own, it came out just the right size. I had to knit by the seat of my pants according to online measurements.



It has been MONTHS since I mailed that darn thing and I haven't had the heard to knit since. It took hundreds of hours. Literally, it was my very first attempt to do something so small. I totally screwed up my fist little swatch and had to restart. The discarded piece was only 1 cm long but because I wasn't used to the needles, that first bit took two weeks to finish. I almost had a heart attack. But I did it!

And now I'm ready to start another one. "Psycho"
