Awww! Little Knitted Guys

These two little guys are made from the Rainbow Babies pattern; I used thicker yarn than the pattern called for. Blue Sock Monkey loves his little friend, and hopes someone will give both of them a home together.

Snowing Here

This is a knitting book, and if you don't have a Jack Russell, you'll have to buy the book to knit your own dog. The Jack Russell pattern is at the address below:

Audrey's Felted Bear

I made this a few years ago and I'm not sure of the title of the book it is from. It might be Felt It. If I find out later that I'm wrong, I'll let you know.

Hitty 2010 Fall Challenge Outfit

I finished this outfit late; it was either due Oct 15 or Oct 31, I can't remember which. We were all given the orange/gold/brown varigated yarn; it was so thin I had to double it to knit the capelet and the bottom of the dress. The rest of the dress was knit with "scavenged" yarn (from unraveled thrift store sweaters). The dress turned out longer than I wanted, so I will be tweaking the pattern, and also adding sleeves to it. The doll modeling is a Robert Raikes Hitty. He had a manufacturing business, and all the Raikes Hittys look exactly like this one.

Recent Projects Finished

The crocheted pinafore was made for Hitty dolls going to a new Ronald McDonald House being built near where a Hitty Girls (a Yahoo group) member lives. We are all contributiing an item or two.

     The little Knitted boys are made from the Rainbow Babies pattern. They are about seven inches tall and fun to make from sock yarn left overs.
