Paz - a basic knitted bear

Here's Paz - a basic knitted bear. I've finished knitting up some basic bears - simple to knit and look fab in variegated yarn, or in soft cuddly yarn - you can choose what type of yarn - I've used La Paz yarn 1 x 100g ball on 3mm needles to make this 17 inch bear. Of course I recommend embroidering a nose and eyes if it's for a small child under 3 years.

Introducing Amelia & Mousie Mousie

Introducing Amelia and MousieMousie!
I've made two different dressing options - I love knitting cables - a snuggly mohair jumper and hat with cute ruffle pants - and a gorgeous long cable dress. I've also made some matching mousies - fun to make in lots of different yarns - as you can see I have had lots of fun experimenting with yarns!

Knitted Ballerina Doll - Evangeline

After years of sewing cloth rag dolls, I have finally branched into knitting dolls. 
So here is Evangeline, a ballerina, approx 20 inches high, knitted flat and seamed. She's got a little ballerina bunny. I think she needs a whole class of these little bunnies to teach!  xx

Pattern is now available in  my Etsy store.
