G.O: Friend Requests

Getting On:

Friend's Requests


Now I did have a hand in - so soon I'll be sharing images of my work, afterwards - with the holidays having come and gone. I still have some more to do  and others already completed.
This includes;

Doll - Princess themed and I want to make two dresses and two pairs of shoes to go with her crown.

4 x Crochet Bracelets - for a housemate. Soon to be available through etsy.

2 x Hand warmers, done on a knitting machine with cabling and long in size


This means I have some distractions to my work, but mostly I'm trying to use them as breaks from work. The hardest part is limiting my time on them to make sure my work is done. Amongst other things.

Thanks for reading x

G.0: Monkeys off



 Getting On: Two Monkeys Are Moving On


These two dinosaur sock monkeys are going to two little boys  a friends nephews.

Made in summer 2012, with the buttons added a week before the boys got them. They were made with a set of baby boy socks, for 6 + months, toy stuffing, threads and small buttons.

I love the colours and stripes, one of the most colourful sock monkeys I have made, especially with such small socks. Making them cheerful companions for  young (but older children), for  girls or boys.


I hope they are enjoying their new friends.


Thanks for reading - and I'll be posting new items of  jewellery and sock monkeys and other products this weekend.

I'm hoping to post some more on etsy and possibly start some new accounts, maybe  should get these winter trends pages out and see what you all think where would be best - more social sites and forums to more online stores or even youtube?

Anyways I hope you will enjoy the photos soon.

C.W : The Onsie

Listed on my Facebook account, a friend and customer. He has made his own onsie before (a Pikachu), but he has had no time this time round, having work and studies to do.

I have made a toadadile onsie for him to go to a Pokémon-themed party.

The body and tail turned out great, but I made a hood/hat that looked a little scary to me. It wasn't meant to be, I will be making more hats with some luck very shortly. Animal themed, rather than Pokémon.

I will be making a block from the pattern he lent me, he doesn't like the pattern paper. So I'll be making a copy in card that he would prefer, and it would make it easier for him to use.

So all that is left - is to use all the spare fleece.

Oh I'm looking forward to a new project

Share any ideas x
