What is the odds??

What is the odds that my daughter would come running threw the main door: Mom! Mom!.... Could you knit underwear for Sofia!???? I don`t know what my daughter and the next door girl have been talking about! But Sofia was in desperate need of more clothing. Sofia is my daughter`s stuffed fabric doll, a gift several years ago. The hat is a part of her head, can not be remover (same as the shoes), she`s got a t-shirt and a skirt... Yes! A skirt attached with 2 stitches, one in each side of the doll. Daughter removed these after a rather "long talk" with me.... I told her that the skirt would not stay up if she removed the stitches.... I even showed her that the skirt was to wide...... 

I knitted underpants and I attached an elastic band to the skirt....3 times!

The Sofia doll has only 3mm between her legs and her bum is sticking far out!

That was a challenge, but I think I did well.

The front

The back, I increased loops like I would do for a real baby pants.

Sofia happy as ever....

Sideways with her bum...

The skirt. Elastic band sewn with strait elastic stitches first, did not work and I had to remove... 

Then with elastic zig zag stitches, did not work either.... 

 Then I hand stitched over and under the elastic band, like a row pocket. It seams to have done the trick....

Well my daughter also would like a pink dress, long  green pants, a top.....

I`m loving this..... I really am :)
