In time for Christmas? Susan B. Anderson Knit Doll

Today is December 6.  Oh you KNITTY NOODLE! Yesterday I began this Susan B. Anderson knitted dolly project for Christmas giving.  I have three granddaughters, you see...we call them the girlies...ages 11, 5 and 3.  The knitting's going quickly, but not quickly enough.  I can finish one for sure, maybe two.  This pattern ensemble includes knitting instructions for the doll (three color variations) and clothes to go along (a shawl, a top and a skirt).  About the only thing I'm calculating right now, is how old will the girlies be next year.  Not too old for handmade dollies from Grandma, I hope; there's always next year to get these done and send them along.  It is my goal to get at least one set done (doll and clothes) for Christmas giving.  It's the youngest girlie who actually loves dolls as much as I do, with hands-on loving; however, I can't make just one, you see.  The catch is that the Dollie #1 has to ship from California to Idaho; there's enough time if I put all else aside, I do believe.
