Paper Dolls

This little knit has been languishing in a pile of WIP's for many, many months.  I was determined to get it off the needles and onto my body.  I knit Paper Dolls using Rowan Scottish Tweed 4ply in Lewis Grey, Grey Mist and Rose (my favourite combo of grey and pink) and despite the yoke taking FOREVER, it was still a fun knit.  The paper dolls were a bit bumpy before blocking, as I was paranoid about leaving enough stranded yarn at the back of the work to avoid puckering.  After a good wet blocking, they settled down and now I am very happy with the results.
