Current Project Love!

 This little guy is Herman the Enigmatic Bear designed by Rebecca Danger, have you heard of her yet? Her monsters and critters are simply the best, I love them. Check out her website for free patterns and more. I'm going to give him an angry face, Herman here is one of my class projects for the net round of knitting classes at Top Drawer Yarn Studio here in P.G.. I've used the last full ball of my Mission Falls 1824 Merino in this weird curry colour, only suitable for a bear I think since very few people want to wear this colour. Goodbye forever Mission Falls!

Happy Valentine's Day! These lovely little hearts are from Norah Gaughn, she is delightful! One of a kind, these sweet little hearts are super easy to make up, then fulled (just go easy on the felting) and so cute! I'm imagining a clay flower pot with a bunch of these atop painted skewers!

The best thing about knitting little gems like these? They are fast, allow you to stash bust and there are no ends to weave in! Wahoo. Oh, and today I found that I didn't have any poly fill for stuffing so I'm using some thrifted acrylic yarn that I will never knit with. Smart!
