Knitted competition entries

This is a doll i knitted for a women's institute competition although it didn't get a placing.
I knitted it from a pattern i made up using i cord for arms and legs, it had a maximum length of 30cm which is why the legs are so short (and curly).
The dress pattern i managed to find in a book for dolls and simply used much smaller needles.
It is sitting on a small floor mat i also knitted for a competition which received a 2nd place. it was knitted out of a satin type material (ripped into lengths and tied together) with a red 8ply wool.
