Testing, Testing

 I just completed an itty bitty test knit for Heevis Miniatures. 


The largest of these sleepers for doll house babies is less than 2" tall! It was knit on 1.2mm needles (4/0) using 1ply cashmere. The smaller ones on either side were knit using the same pattern but 1mm needles (5/0) and a finer cashmere thread. 

The pattern does include working buttonholes but unfortunately I don't have anything that fits. The tiniest seed beads I have (on the blue sleeper) are way too large and the 2mm buttons I ordered are a little too small and won't stay fastened. They also have such tiny holes that it is a struggle to get even my finest beading needle through the hole.
