This collections was inspired by Figtree's California Girls range - I have a jelly roll of this collection earmarked for a Thimbleblossom's "Hopscotch" quilt, and these threads in a 40wt would be perfect to piece or quilt.
I call this collection "Hopping to California".

The Source is a United States-based, monthly full-color magazine covering hip-hop music, politics, and culture, founded in 1988. It is the world's second longest running rap periodical, behind United Kingdom-based publication Hip Hop Connection. The Source was founded as a newsletter in 1988. The current president of the publication is Jeremy Miller. From humble beginnings, the Source had grown into one of the largest and most influential hip-hop publications in the United States. It had even grown to the point of being called "The Bible of Hip-Hop."
We developed and deployed a new all flash website for the source magazine together with Plot, the project due to the vagaries of hip-hop magazine culture di however not live many years before it was taken down in favour of its current myspace incarnation
Made with vintage thread.

Yes, more sewing thread and 1mm (5/0) needles.
This is the Al Fresco Camisole pattern from the summer 2011 issue of Interweave Knits with a few modifications. Other than the obvious changes for scale and size I've also opted to knit it in the round rather than as two flat pieces that would need to be seamed.
I am about 25% finished at this point, and worried it might be too big for the doll in question. It's hard to tell since the faux cable treatment might draw it in a bit when I get to it, after the bind off.

Here is an easy way that my grandmother taught me to knot a thread when hand sewing. It is very easy for children and people with eyesight difficulties. Could not fitt whole video on sorry...

I love these old threads, especially when in such pristine condition. This is actually from a separate lot (and in a different shade) from the other orange Bear threads I put on my Flickr photostream a year or so back. What are the chances of turning up two such lots?
