Knitted gift ideas for...

[Purlywhites]

A 6 year old girl.
She likes dressing up and princess stuff but her mum hates it and won't get worn/ used unless she is at her nans.
I have no money so thought I'd knit something. I have just over a week. What could I knit for her? Something simple but nothing too pink and spangly. Something a bit tomboy-ish but with a hint of girly.
Help very much appreciated. TIA.

this is nice

and so are these but you have to buy the pattern for 4.75

Yes something like that perhaps. It'll have to be a quickie so something small.

Would this princess crown hat be suitable?

Or Red Riding Hood's cape?

I love that cape! Thanks for that.

I love the cape too! But I just asked my Mum if she'd knit it for DD2 who is 5 and she scoffed and said "Who'd put their child in THAT???"

ME! I would Mother! I like it!

What about knitted toys? I'm sure I've seen patterns for little finger puppets...

Or how about clothes for her dolls/teddies?

That cape is so sweet! I bet my 6 year old niece would love it.

Ragdoll

Hello Kitty Hat

I can't be the only one tempted to make an adult-size Red Riding Hood cloak

No Ria - you are not

How about one of those fancy frilly scarves - if you have time to get the yarn?

My DS would love the Red Riding Hood cloak!

Yes I would if I had a DD.

She likes Hello Kitty, I considered a toy but I haven't done one yet. I don't think my first one should be a gift, especially when her mum is so fussy.

I'll look through the links again and see which is easiest.
Thanks for the replies.

I do like the ragdoll though!

My six year old would like a knitted Pokemon ball.

We also have knitted food. There's a whole section on eBay.

I'd go for ragdoll. Then if you have enough time, knit a couple ofdresses in different colours then she can dress up!

I may go for the doll. The different dresses sounds good.
She's quite a mature 6 year old and not very girly.
Oh we'll I'm sure she'd like a doll even if her mum hates it (she been known to make stuff go missing iykwim).

She's*
