Carmen's Red Dress

I have completed Carmen and started knitting her red dress.  I might end up adding some more stuffing to her head as it got a bit out of shape when I put the dress on her.  The provisional cast on at the neck will become a pink frilly ruffle.  There is also a pink ruffle at the lower edge.  She also has a twin set/poodle skirt outfit in her kit.  They are very cute, however, if I can not stablize her head well enough, that pretty pink yarn just might become a pair of Fair Isle socks.  The red dress will be nice enough and she will look better longer without the wear and tear of extra clothing.  I learned a lot about shaping small sections of knitting to create a knitted stuffed animal from this fun little project.

The dress is so...cute on Carmen. She will be very well dressed by the time you finish. I really admire your patience with this project.

Thank goodness for the dress. We must protect Carmen's virtue. We can't have her walking around nekkid. Modesty forbids!

Very cute.
