My Life Hermione
When I saw Adoring Dolls had created a Harry Potter themed pattern for the 18" dolls it went on my crochet birthday pattern list and I was blessed to get it. You can purchase the pattern here.
I've been working on a baby blanket that I need to finish before the end of next month which is why I didn't post any finished projects last week. However, between sc rows on the baby blanket I still need to work on something different and this was a fun project to add to the doll donation.
I always find it fun to add themed outfits to the donation but I hadn't seen a Hermione pattern prior to this one. The pattern includes outfits for Harry and Hermione. This was a great stash busting project as I had all the yarn I needed in my stash.
Notes:
My gauge has always been different from the designer's so I'm always prepared to adjust when I make her patterns. I make these notes for myself when I make this outfit again.
Sweater: I used an I hook for the Sweater.
Skirt: I used an H hook for the Skirt. I tried an I hook but the skirt was too large. I did add rows to the skirt as I found it was short based on the picture if I used the suggested rows.
Shoes/Socks: I used an H hook for both and needed to add rows to the socks.
Coat: I used an K hook for the coat and I added rows to get the length I wanted.
Hat: I used an H hook and added a row of dc for the brim.
Scarf: I followed the directions for the scarf.
the outfits are very cute
