Another knitted dolly

Greetings,
I knitted another Jeangreen Howe's doll with a slight modification. I used size zero needles with double knitting yarn and it was a bad decision. I had to gain a lot of patience to finish this doll. I also made some changes with her hair. It took me a while, but I finally finished it!
I thought by using a pair of smaller needles, I could make a smaller doll. But, since I used double knitting yarn it didn't make much difference. Maybe, next time if I want to make a smaller doll I will use one skein yarn.
We learn from our mistakes :)

Sock dolls

Greetings,
I finished a couple of sock dolls and they are very cute. I am hooked to these and they are so easy and fast to sew.



I am going to make a few more of these ;)
Until next...
Revs!

Handmade Notebook

Greetings,
Recently I was reading Reader's digest 'Laughter is the best medicine'. I read a joke which was so funny and inspired me to make this project. The joke goes like this:
As per the joke, I drew two little girls. I learnt to illustrate these cartoon nerdy girls from Wikipedia.
After I illustrated these girls I decided to make this a cover for a book. I added some ruled sheets inside the book. I also added some decorative lenin sheets for the inside and the outside and for the border of the book. I wrote the joke on the cover with a permanent marker and I laminated the cover using a plastic wrap.





I am quite happy with the outcome! I am going to gift this to one of my friends daughter. It will be wonderful to record all kinds of memories of her school daze!
