Knit For Victory


Years ago I found this pattern & decided one day I would make myself a doll!
I waited & waited but always had other things to make when I was selling so now was the perfect time.
Back in April I made a start....



I started with the Air Force man as at the time I was reading lots of RAF WW2 books!

Meet Johnny 


He turned out rather well!

I was so taken with him I decided to make the solider.


Johnny & George hanging out on my mantlepiece!


So then I thought it would be mean to leave out the sailor!

Hello sailor!


Meet Pete..... I did change the pattern for this one, his hat was suppose to be made out of cloth but I crocheted one instead.

I'm loving my boys!


I'm not sure what I'll do with them but I'm glad I took time out to make them.

Now I'm thinking.....


Better get a bigger mantlepiece!
