I wanted to make a blanket...

...but I didn't have enough yarn on hand to make it.

I did have enough yarn for a doll blanket,though, so I planned on making just a small one for my niece.

But I just couldn't give her a doll blanket without giving her a doll, too. Right?

So I made a doll last Saturday. Isn't she adorable? I'm naming her Clara for now.

Well, a doll is great. And a doll and a doll blanket is pretty nice, too.

But what 2 1/2 year old wouldn't love a doll, doll clothes, a doll blanket, and... a matching Big Girl blanket, too?

Hmm... I need to get to work.


P.S. My sweet hubby, when he saw the doll and heard about the blanket that inspired me, took me out immediately (at 9:30pm) to pick up all the yarn I need.  What a good hubby!
