Barbie clothes are now my new knitting frenzy! I promised Joel's niece that I would make some for her when I was there in Texas last month. Now that Christmas is over I'm finally getting to it. Hopefully there will be many more pictures of other articles of clothing to come. I found a GREAT webpage loaded with patterns. There so cute and I want to make them all. The mohair jacket still needs buttons and snaps. Part of the puffed sleeve shirt needed to be knitted with my size 0000 needles. I was so happy because I hadn't had a chance to knit with them yet. They are metal and So tiny! I was like knitting with actual needles! After a grueling hour or so of knitting the smaller part of the sleeve with them I gave up and switched back to size 0. Funny how big that seems now. The main reason for giving up on them was that I practically dug a hole in my pointer finger while doing it. Knitting straight with them was fine, but I don't suggest doing it in the round. Here is the link to the webpage with all patterns. http://barbiebasics.tripod.com/knits.html
