A Boy in a Dress

With each day that passes Pocca seems more and more like a boy. I've referred to him as such since the beginning. 

There have been some Pocca owners requesting a pattern for a dress though, so this little guy, being the good sport that he is, agreed to model the finished dress. He may end up with one more dress as I test knit the final pattern one more time for accuracy and clarity. After that though, he's really hoping for some more pants!

Pocca's Pointy Hat

Just finished today, but the developing pattern is still only in note form. Worked with one ply of 6 strand embroidery floss on 6-0 (0.75mm) needles.

Pocca still needs pants!

Micro Knitting

 How tiny is it? MICRO tiny!

When all the "yarn" needed for a complete sweater consists of just ONE ply of 6 strand embroidery floss and the entire "ball" can be wound on a bread tag, you know it's got to be micro knitting.

And who is this tiny knitting for? A little wee "Pocca". He's a micro ball jointed doll from DreamHigh Studios. He is only 4.5cm tall. That's less than 2 inches!

I've already knit him (or her) a teeny little hat.

Pocca hasn't yet received his faceup (that's colouring and details added to the face of a ball jointed doll).

When that is complete I might decide to rename him. I'm open to suggestions.

Pocca has a second "sleeping" face. I might decide to make that one a girl, for modelling purposes, but they would have to share a body.
