After a long hiatus, injured wrist put stitching out of the realm of the possible, I've tried a little simple knitting, partly to appease my Need to Make Stuff, partly to be a gentle exercise to improve my wrist. Both of which it has done.
Can't work for long, but anyway, one Dolliver will be getting a new dress as soon as it's seamed up, and there's another on the needles. Blondie Firstborn has one of these dresses and it's been a bone of contention among the other four that they don't have one, too.
These are from the Knitted Babes book by Claire Garland, from which the Dollivers came, though adapted from the originals in the book. I hugely recommend this book as fun as well as very simply presented. Makes you want to knit all the things.
And it's using yarn from friend Karen's stash, another cool point.
