Little Blue
Mudlark was rescued from a muddy riverside in England. While eternally grateful for that, and for the new wooden body I carved her, she admitted that she was a little unhappy with the dress I found for her to wear. She thought the crochet was a little see-through, the dress too short, and the colour-scheme rather mud-coloured…
.
.
…so I knitted her a new dress…
.
.
…and she loves it because it brings out the remaining blue of her eyes…
.
.
…and it is long enough so her drawers don’t show anymore…
.
.
…and best of all, now she and Guttersnipe are dressed in the same colour!
.

And it billows beautifully in the breeze 🙂
It does! It is warm (made of wool) and yet cool (billowy)! She may need a flannel petticoat in winter, but we don’t need to think about that for a while!
Oh, Mudlark, I am so happy for you! Your guardian has done you a good turn in making you that pretty dress.
Mudlark is very glad of the new dress…she definitely had outgrown the old one, it was time she got her own clothes made just for her!
Yes! Mudlark looks happier than ever in her new blue dress.
Mudlark is indeed happy! It is very gratifying to knit and sew for the little girls!
Oh how lovely! Her new dress is so pretty and looks very comfy.
This is a reliable and easy pattern! Mudlark is glad I could knit with such tiny needles and thin yarn, and she does love the colour!
Lovely! And, off they scamper, into the wild blue yonder to have adventures out of the blue!
They are quite adventurous, considering their small stature. Maybe they just want to fill their lived with fun and frolics, after the century of mud and dust!
oh so pretty..your knitting is exquisite and the color choice is just perfect for her!
Thanks very much – the little dresses are fiddly, and the littler ones are fiddly-er, but they are quick to knit. Darning in the ends takes almost as long, patience is required!

Thank you very much! It is nice to have friends ❤
