I knit matching ski sweaters for the 5 American Girl dolls that stay in my room. The project got so boring I could hardly finish it and I was very fortunate to have enough Gray. Knit in an Acrylic DK yarn with a slipstitch pattern, rather than stranding, as it is easier to get some color interest when not knitting in the round. Each set was knit with Gray and White and a unique color. They look like pullovers, but they actually button up the back for easy on-off. The hats were knit in the round and the pompoms were made with two colors wrapped over a serving fork-they are fast and easy to make and just the right size for the dolls.
