I was so pleased with my efforts this week that I thought I would share these guys with you:
And yes, I know chickens aren't yellow and chicks (who are yellow) don't have combs. But the colours look great together and we'll just call it artistic license. I will knit a pair of chickens in brown to set the universe back to rights.
Don't you love the minions!! They were so much fun to make once I got the eyes right.
You'll also notice to the right my new Etsy shop. I had all these mittens laying around and thought I'd list them on Etsy and see what happens. Call me a sucker for punishment. And yes, I am knitting in every spare moment and have a pair on the go in every room, in every state of production depending on how much time I have at that moment. I'm sure this will get old soon but it hasn't yet so that has to be a good sign (possibly of insanity...)
Those look great! I especially love the minions. Guess this means I really need to get going on those minion hats. We could likely work out a deal for eye balls in future, perhaps in exchange for dinner? I don't mind making them, as long as I don't have to sew them on. :)
ReplyDeleteI finished the Poo Bear hat. It's most excellent, but likely only a 1-2 year-old size. Can't wait to see if you manage to whip up mittens to match!
Congratulations on the new Etsy store. I see you've sold a pair of cat mittens already!!! Incentive to carry on with the woolly mitten marathon.
