Notes

I can’t count! they came out slightly different size, I’ll try and make another pair, to end up with 2 matching pairs.

the stripes worked out nicely, I only had to do some very minor surgery to get the pink at the right place for the hands.

For the boy’s hair, I knit the last few rows in bouclé Drops Alpaca, and crocheted a few stitches down the sides.

23-25/12 - Made 2 more pairs (green and orange), for a total of 3 pairs - for my brother’s twins+1 - and got better and better at it, especially at the seaming! Also got better at managing yarn ends, to minimize finishing.
Tried different hairstyles… the one I prefer is the blond, where the last few rows in garter give a bit more texture to the hair.

26/12 - added a baby size, using fingering yarn and 2.5mm - will it fit? if not it makes a nice finger puppet! And knit one more pair, blue - for better matching sets that they can mix and match as they wish
