But, as I mentioned the other day, I've been enjoying doing some knitting of an evening and finished our latest addition to the pet family (and thankfully one that's clean, quiet, doesn't need walking or visits to the vet!)
Meet Primrose...
There is a fabulous site for the most gorgeous toy knitting patterns (and wonderful pics and ideas) here at Mary Jane's Tearoom. Even if you don't like knitting, I'd still recommend a visit! But I got my download pattern from there - and have now got another couple so am keen to start on another cute make!
It's the first time I've knitted a toy (I've done the odd jumper for the children or crocheted blankets - that's one of them in the background of the photo) but I really enjoyed making Primrose. I'm not sure I've got the features quite right on her face, but she does look a bit better in real life (perhaps she's like me and doesn't like having her photo taken lol!).
Anyway, hope you don't mind me sharing the pics - and do pay a visit to Mary Jane's Tearoom if you like all things pretty!
Back soon,

Hi Kim...Thank you for the lovely comment on my blog...you have done a wonderful job making Primrose and the first time you have made a knitted toy too...well done! I love the yarns and colours you have used and hope you have lots of fun with all your future projects...x
ReplyDeleteOoh, poor Tilly...fingers crossed that her feet are much better soon...those cones do the job but they are such a nuisance!
Happy Knitting,

This is Fab Kim, she's so cute! :) xx
ReplyDeleteWOW, Kim- when truly adorable rabbit! Love her.
ReplyDeleteAwww poor Tilly, I can remember Ollie having to have a claw off and I slept with him so he wouldn't take the sock off LOL not in his dog bed of course hahaha. This knitted rabbit is so cute, I haven't done any knitting for years but when I did I made lots of toys and my daughter still has hers, hope Tilly is okay soon lots of huggles Sue xxxx
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about Tilly, I hope all goes well with her treatment - sounds like fun!
ReplyDeleteYour knitted bunny is adorable. I used to knit a lot and made quite a few toys for my children when they were younger which they still have. I do find knitting very relaxing, must find some time to do some more.
Thank you so much for the link, off to have a look now.

I LOVE Primrose!! I am currently teaching myself to crochet and am really enjoying it. I haven't knitted anything in a while so am off to have a peep at Mary Jane's Tearoom. Poor Tilly. I don't envy you the palaver of trying to stop her eating the cream xx

Well think Miss Primrose is just lovely as can be. I don't know how to knit but am happy you do so you could share her with us. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteAwww, what a sweet bunny!
ReplyDeleteHope wee Tilly's OK ... our Ruby was at the Vet with a sore paw too - all infected and swollen. Got a jab from the nasty vet (he's lovely really!) and some tablets and seems to be much improved.
Aw how sweet. She's gorgeous.
