That's great Isabella. Do you ever get inspired to make things for adults? Apparently when it used to be more popular to knit, a lot of people would knit scarves and gloves and other items in the summer so they were ready for winter. Could save you money if you knit your own.
I'm highly allergic to wool, so I can only knit with very soft cotton or acrylic yarn. Baby yarn is easiest for me to work with, but I also prefer baby items since they're so little and quick to make. I have made scarves, mittens and hats for myself but they're never as cute as baby items.
Ah ok that makes sense.

Talking of real babies since I brought it up, does anyone else (who has teddies) think they're sad? I can weave all sorts of stories around my dolls and teddies as they're not very human looking but real babies look like
actually real babies so they'll always be babies?
That's the feeling I got when I went to one of those shops, it used to just be a generic doll shop and I was looking for a porcelain doll. They're a bit 'uncanny valley' esque, too.
