The Kina's are made...

Over the last couple of months I have been knitting Kina cardigans.  We have liked them for quite a while, thanks to posts by Corrie.  So now to show you the six I have just finished:

I started with ones for dolls - white (forgot to take a photo of this one), green and red.

 

Then moved on to Miss 3's pale green one.

Next was Miss 7's lilac one.

And now their mummy Wen has one too.

The yarns came from bendigowoollenmills.  This is now my favourite site for yarn purchases. The girls's Cotton (Honeydew and Hollyhock) and Wen's Luxury (Purple Storm) were easy to purchase online,  were delivered to the door and were all lovely to knit with.

This Kina pattern is available through ravelry.  The doll and adult ones are free downloads, but the children's one has to be purchased.  There is a baby version too, but we had outgrown it in my family.

I can see myself having more of these underway in the future - I'm even thinking I may make one for myself!  And I've only got scarves over the past few years.  The knits are usually for the younger members of our extended family.

Now on to some sewing, before Mister 1 1/2 gets some more winter knits.
