Babes on the Beach

Hello, I've been following the knitted babe-along for a while now and have really been enjoying everybody's posts! I've been too behind in my UFO's to actually contribute until now. I'm finally finished my third and best Babe who I've named "Marina".




She is 99.9% made from the Dream Toys pattern with the exception of the ruffles. I just couldn't bring myself to cast on all those stitches on such tiny needles that were called for on the ruffles. Instead, I improvised and did a simple crochet shell ruffle (which turned out just fine, I think).
