Knit, Purl etc.
Posted on | March 9, 2014 | 12 Comments
Lots of little knitting has been happening here in the last week or two. Having to be in different places and doing a bit of waiting around lends itself to having an easy carry project like knitting.
I have made several of these monkeys before from a Twins Knitting pattern.
I have been playing with different sized needles to alter the size of the softie.
This next little pink rabbit is another Twins pattern.
And another – this time a little soft lamb, a free pattern from Barbara Prime.
Okay, that’s all the knitting done, but not the end of the softies.
I went to a class with Rosalie Quinlan and made a sweet little rabbit. The classes are at Patchwork with Gail B.
This is a Melly and Me pattern – Baby Bunnies.
And just to keep the Easter theme going, here is the felt penny rug I am working on for Easter.
This is from the same book as the Christmas one I made with Santa and trees.
The book is called Quick and Easy Penny Rugs.
I am still continuing to work on my crochet skills and made this little heart using a diagram rather than reading a pattern. So many new things to learn!
We have a long weekend holiday here for Labour Day and the weather has decided some warmth and sunshine are in order.
Lots of time to relax and enjoy.
I hope your weekend has been wonderful, too.

What a wonderful lineup of cute softies!! And that heart is very cool… I haven’t crocheted from a chart before, is it very tricky?
Wow, everything you have made is delightful
How sweet! I love the little handmade softies. Haven’t made any in a while, but I enjoyed seeing yours. I miss Monkee Maker.
Busy fingers!!! Some little one is extremely lucky.
Those are the cutest little animals I have ever seen!! Wow! You are quite the knitter :) Those belong on a magazine cover!!
love your little softies!
your rabbit looks fantastic with that fabric. very pretty crochet heart, I prefer to follow a diagram to a written pattern. I find it easier.
happy crafting.
My goodness these are all so cute
What a fun post!! All of your little animals are so smiley and cute! I love the way you made the bunny with Easter rabbit fabric. Your crochet heart is really sweet!
Your knitted treasures are so awesome! Especially love that knitted bunny! And the fabric bunnies are awesome too!
Adorable little knitted softies, and I love that fun little fabric bunny! Who would have thought to use a border print. It’s perfect!
Ahh, that subtile reminder that I have not finished my Christmas penney rug, I had to start after I saw yours…wonder where I put it??? :-)
Hi Karen,
I love all your little knitted animals, and the rabbit, and the crochet!! Phew…very busy. That’s what happens when we are having to wait around. Great toys.
Cheers, Anita.
A very cute little group Karen…lucky you going to Gail B’s.
