She included everything in the kit but I thought I needed a "Liberty Bell" instead of the little Christmas bells she included. I found them online for not very much money. I am so happy how it turned out though the next one I make I will insert a tiny bit of stuffing inside to make the chicklet poof out a bit.
It was on my mind to make a ton of these and hand them out to friends BUT common sense came to me. I already have **two projects with time crunches so...maybe for next year if anyone would like a Mini Yankee Doodle Chicklet...but you have to let me know so I can put it on a list!
**The two projects with end dates are The Woolly Thistle Vest Knit A Long which ends early to mid July and the Hoadie's Sweet Vanilla Sock Test Knit which ends 12 July. Both of those dates are coming right up. The socks are toe up socks. I love them. They fit really well. I am ready to start the legs which will only be about four inches, maybe five. Since I wear "combat boots" so I can walk, I need the cuff of the sock to come up a few inches above the top of the boot. We shall see how far I go!
The Woolly Thistle Vest KAL is more taxing as the vest has to cover a lot more territory. I am at the point of dividing for the armholes/front/back. I plan to steek for the armholes and for the sort of scoop neckline. Since I am creating this pattern myself there is no guarantee that it will be any good at all...hoping for the best.
