January's Jersey Beacons

What's in store for 2018 from my knitting needles .  . .  I plan on the continuation of a year-long project following each month's themes as set out in my Kidz 'n' Cats Kalendar Book Publications, but showcasing them using my slim Gotz models, a project that started last year in December with the 'Home for the Holidays' theme.

For January I will be following 'Jersey Beacons' as depicted in volume one of Kalendar Kidz featuring 'Whidbey DK" ~ a Guernsey stitch sweater complete with winter warm accessories 

the continuation will be for February's 'City Chic' theme featuring Bon~Bon

Home for the Holidays with Braemar

As my knitting quickly switches gears to the holidays ahead,
I have begun with working holiday coats using one of the patterns, Braemar featured in the Kalendar Kidz Publication for what will become a year long endeavor to showcase each month's featured design modeled on my slim Gotz Happy Kidz and Hannah girls, beginning with December's theme:
                    'Home for the Holidays' 

Home for the Holidays as depicted in volume two of  Kalendar Kidz Vol. 2  with minor changes like working a textured white trim, adding a hood and pairing with a dress for a finishing touch

as featured in the book
on my slim Kidz 'n' Cats girls
