Back-to-School Yarns

Once the long days of summer are abruptly interrupted by the beginning of another school year, kids of all ages face the sad prospect of having to rise and shine earlier than their growing bodies desire. How to counterbalance these early morning blues? Fashionably, of course. And nothing spells fall fashion better than a hand knitted garment made with love. Best of all, this handmade quality need not break the bank and jeopardize our tykes' college education funds as there are options galore being offered by Dolldom's talented artist friends. The next time there is an inkling of early morning despair or dissension, perform a quick attitude adjustment by putting a cozy cap on a little head.
