Bearberry

It's been a while, but here's my latest little bear who will be jet setting off to his new home in the UK shortly.

His name is Bearberry and he stands at 9cms tall.

He is handsewn from short mohair, has glass eyes & a handsewn nose and I've weighted him nicely to help him sit/stand. He is cotterpin jointed.

More Tummy Warmers/Belly Bands

Just finished a batch, they should come in handy in bridging the gap now I have a preggy belly to cover :)

The Escapist

I saw a similar picture somewhere and thought it would translate nicely to a t-shirt for Seth.

Giraffe Taggie

Someone requested one of my taggies for a baby shower but I wanted to try something a little different so asked if they would be okay with a stuffed toy taggie instead.

The end result

Sackboy & KnitKit

So I finished my other Sackboy a little while ago, but the little boy who Sackboy is going too has a little sister and I didn't want to leave her empty handed, so was looking for something to make for her. I came across this little kitten which seemed nice and finally got it done too.

All that's left to do is package them and post them. I hope they like their new home!

Sackboy

A while back someone sent me a knitting pattern for a cute little character called Sackboy, from a game called LittleBigPlanet.

They asked if I could make one for them but I said unfortunately I didn't know how to knit anything besides a severely wonky scarf.

Forward a couple month, I asked my talented master-knitter mother to show me how to actually knit, and asked her if the pattern would be a hard one to follow. She said it was actually very simple, so I gave it a go.

Here's the result, it's not too bad for a first try...he's a little ramshackle but my son seems to love him as is.

I'm busy working on my second one, which is hopefully going to be much neater, for the kind sender of the pattern :)

Big Brother Tee

A fun way to break the big news to family and friends :)
