Miniature knitting


 Look at how tiny the stitches are and how dainty the edge of the blanket is!
I don't know who made the dress on the right, but isn't it pretty too?
I wanted to share some of the miniature knitting I have acquired to go with my Roberson pram.  The pram blanket, christening gown, underslip, matinee coat plus a tiny bonnet, underpants and wee slippers were made by Virginia Sullivan.  They are exquisite and I am so pleased with them.  I commissioned her to make them after buying a little pram outfit on ebay from her.  I believe she goes by miniknits on ebay.  I can't even imagine how she manages to knit so tiny.  I can barely see the stitches let along knit them!!

    I love miniature knitting too, and admire the talent of those who do it so well. I can knit in 1:1 scale but have terrible trouble getting started in miniature! I leave it to the experts and just gladly acquire some of their beautiful products :-)

    Thank you so much for the wonderful comments on my knitting....it is always a thrill to see and hear how people love these tiny items......I have got my own blog now (clickclack miniature knitting sounds) but still follow this one as I just love the small houses.....unfortunately I have not been on eBay recently as I am so busy with commissions but at least it keeps me out of mischief...ha!
