Beaded Sweater

Hello, doll friends!

Not long ago Josefina asked for a red sweater to wear with the skirt of her meet outfit, but she also wanted something extra added to it, so Mama came up with a beaded pattern. The sweater itself is based on the pattern she used to make the Basic Long Knitted Sweater, but it has the extra pizzazz because of all the white beads that were worked into it. The instructions will show you how to add beads to your knitting, and it's a lot easier than it might look 😉

* You can find the link to the pattern and pdf file at the end of this entry *

Let's take a look at the finished piece:

Didn't it turn out beautifully? Beads are everywhere! Josefina loves it, and proudly wears it with her meet skirt and a pair of white boots.

Here is the back of it. More beads and two small white buttons finish off a special sweater for a special girl 😊

If you would like to make the Beaded Sweater for yourself, you can click on the link below to get to the pattern and the downloadable pdf file.

I plan to keep my patterns free for everyone to use, but please make sure to link back to this page for credit. Thank you! 😊

Welcome home, Maria!

Hello, everyone!

We have some very special news today! Our sister Maria, who went away for a while has finally returned home, and we're so happy to have her back! *

Of course we had to welcome her properly 😃

Yay, she's finally here!

A big hug from Hiedra.

And another one from Luciana.

And of course a big hug also from Josefina, who is especially happy to have her little sister back home.

We're so happy you're finally back home, Maria!

* The first Maria, an Our Generation Abril doll, was donated and sent to the EMS Buddy Group on Facebook, which gifts dolls, doll clothes, and accessories to children with life-threatening illnesses. The new Maria (American Girl Truly Me #82) is taking her place, and we just pretend that she went on a trip, and has finally arrived back home 😊
