The Matching Top

by

Some of the Sasha babies at our house got new sleeper sets this week.

We think Aubrey, Hamish and Dennis look spectacular in their new clothing. The sleeper sets were made by a lovely lady named Judith, who has an online shop called, Dollydoodles. She makes clothes for Sasha kids, toddlers and babies. These clothes came all the way from England! Isn’t it amazing that the internet has made our world so much smaller?

While Michael has still been busy writing his film script this week, my sisters and I have been even busier designing our princess costumes. We are going to start making the film this week! It is going to be so, so, so exciting!

In the meantime, Mommy has finished the top to match our new pants. I chose this green for the top, because it makes me think of leafy trees and also, of Christmas. Do you like the colour?

Luna wants Mommy to make the top in Christmas red for her, but when we went to the stores this week, they only had Victory red in stock. It is much darker than Christmas red, almost like a burgundy, so Luna did not like it at all. Mommy says she will scavenge through her yarn stock here at home to see if she has any red left over from other projects. I hope she will find some, or Luna is going to be sad…

If you have someone who can knit for you, the pattern for our top is here, below:

    • Mommy is still looking for the red yarn, but she is pretty certain she has some, somewhere. We think the babies are very happy to look so good now. Kisses to you, too, from all of us.

      Maman cherche toujours le fil rouge, mais elle est à peu près certaine d’en avoir quelque part. Nous pensons que les bébés sont très heureux d’avoir l’air si bien maintenant. Bisous à toi aussi de nous tous.
