SD/Dollfie clothes

[ardentcurse.livejournal.com]

Does anyone know where I can get a pattern to make
Dollfie/Super Dollfie clothes?
or what 'other' purchasable patterns fit them?
or if there is one on line!?
What size are they!?

edit:update:

I did find a site that offers a few patters!

help!

So I got the brilliant idea to knit Knitty's Wavy for a friend who is teaching English in South Korea this winter. (pattern found here: http://knitty.com/ISSUEwinter04/PATTwavy.html)

I'm an intermediate knitter, I've knitted lace and much harder projects, but on this one I'm getting stuck. And yes, I DID buy a row counter and am using it.

I think what is throwing me off is that I'm over thinking one of the pattern instructions... to knit the even rows the way they appear. So if it looks like a knit or a purl, do it as a knit or a purl, even if it doesn't look like a "right" knit or purl. Or should I just be doing the even rows the exact same way I do the odd rows? I don't even know if I'm making any sense here.

I was wondering if anyone else has knitted this/run into this problem.

Beaker ideas?

[2thirteen.livejournal.com]

I was in Target yesterday shopping dreaming for Halloween decor. I found some beakers of various shapes and sizes that were filled with what looked like bubbley liquid. I adored them and wanted to recreate that since there was no way I was going to pay $7.99 per beaker!

My questions for you lovely ladies are:

Do any of you know the cheapest place to get beakers etc or should I just comparison shop online?

And

What do they use to make the "liquid"? It was solid and colored and was filled with tiny bubbles (I'd be fine without bubbles but I want something that I can store and not have to empty out every year or worry about it getting spilt)


Thanks!

warning. image and cat heavy.
x-poxted a few places (as always)
so this quilt is for my sister (who is a 10+ year cat-a-holic)
its different from the last t-shirt quilt i did
for one particular reason.
shes 10. and the largest size she has ever worn (that fit her correctly thus far)
was a childs large. meaning i couldnt get any of the shirts to be the same size.
i wonder-undered and appliqued the shirt graphic onto a "coordinating" cotton block
so it may look like chaos squares... but hey, shes 10.
used a flannel sheet as the "batting" of the quilt.
which was alot easier to deal with...
sewed inside the "ditches" as they say
and this was defn an "experience" in machine quilting.
i thought about doing the whole thing.
but already have another t-shirt quilt in the line-up
(thank you aunt for supplying my demands :D)
i think thats all i have to say...
so enjoy below the cut.
lots of pictures. (4 actually)

Everyone, meet Jam

[slyviolet.livejournal.com]

This is Jam, she's a little kitty doll that I knit for a friend for her birthday. She was the first of what appears to be heading towards a largeish ongoing family of creatures, knit from the yarn that was originally slated to become projects I never finished, or the remnants from those that I did. As it fully embodies my mother's "waste not want not" mentality, I've decided to call them the Wastenots.

This was especially fun because I knit her entirely without plan or pattern... I just made her up as I went along, and sculpted her as she emerged from the needles. It's a really fun way to work.

( I'd like you to meet the eldest sister of the family, Jam Wastenot )
