Sorry, no picture as I am blind!

[rosebud1st]

Ok. Maybe someone will make this and post a picture for us all. I would like to make it but I have so many WIP right now. I am not sure when I would get to it. If I do, I can put up the picture for you. Thank you for sharing your pattern.

[crs5]

I've already started it. I'm on rnd 13.

[rosebud1st]

Fantastic, Carol!!! :cheer Can hardly wait to see it! I'm sure it will be lovely!

[brendaKbrown]

Wow! You are speedy. I guess it's working up quickly. It has been a long time since I made this.

[nana5boys]

Good work, Carol! How big of a doll would you say it will fit? Like I said, I made this a long time ago! Thanks for posting a picture.

[wgjret]

I just made a bassinet using your pattern,,,what a great pattern,,,I just measured mine and it will fit a 14 inch doll,,,thanks again so much:clap

[Peggy85225]

Thank you for sharing.

Brenda

 

I posted a pic of it. Finished it yesterday.

 

Carol:hook

 

May I ask where you posted the pic? I would like to see the pattern made up. I am thinking it would be good for my music box rescue doll.

 

Edited to add: I found it. That looks like it would fit my little one. After the mystery CAL I am thinking that a post stitch would work for this as well.

Ok, one other suggestion. If Amy could paste the pics into the OP, your pattern could be posted at CPC. Assuming that you both agree to this of course.

[teapot]

say looking at the pictures, could the hood be made alittle bigger or would it be too floppy?

[crs5]

I wanted to make the hood bigger, but I didn't know how to.

[darski]

I am planning to make my hood larger. I am using front post stitches to make mine so I think it will be sturdier. I'll post a pic if I ever get it finished.

 

Mine is a slight bit different than Brenda's because I started it while I was out and all I could remember was the starting chain. My oval was getting longer and longer but was skinny so I started using hdc on the sides and sc for the ends.

[brendaKbrown]

It's been a while since I did this pattern, so I'm not sure about the hood. Play with it and see what works well. I think the post stitches will help a lot. I would play with it myself, but I am leaving at 3 in the morning for vacation and have tons to do! Thanks for the pictures and the lovely compliments!

[lhendrix35]

It's beautiful!

[RachelG]

Guess which pattern just got picked to be CPC's featured pattern of the week? (grin)
