Ready for Hockey Season

Last week on our regular Senior's Day visit to Value Village, Jan found some packaged miniature NHL hockey jerseys. They looked about the right size to fit my dolls, so we bought one to try....

It was a touch short in the arms and overall length, but was doable. Then I wondered if there were any Canadian team jerseys in the series, and sure enough on Kijiji there was someone listed who had them at the local flea market - some for just $2. each.  I had thought it would be fun to get a bunch of the same so i could have a 'team', but the guy had only brought singles of everything. Sp assorted jerseys it was going to have to be. They came packaged like this....

Now I had hoped to use them for the KIDs and BIDs, but they were way too big. But some of the jerseys - the ones with central logos, and without different coloured ends of the sleeves - could be taken in and made smaller. Like all the Team Canada ones. So I trimmed some off the bottom, and off the ends of the sleeves, and off the underarm/sleeve seams, and then re-sewed them. They were still bit big, but then hockey jerseys have to go over a lot of padding, so they'd work just fine for a KID. 

The guy at the flea market had a couple of loose, smaller jerseys, and one middle sized Maple Leafs one, which fits a BID. At first I was going to give it to Efreet, but considering that it's been forever since the Leafs have won the Stanley cup, I figured Ringo should get it instead.

So now, even though I've never had even the slightest interest in sports at all, I have a group of dolls all set for the next hockey season....

(the skates, helmets and sticks are from Affordable Designs a few years back)
