Bunny

After taking a brief jaunt out of my hat making box, I have proceeded to jump back in. A friend of mine is expecting another grandbaby, so I thought I would make a baby hat for her. I have seen the cute animal hats in books and wanted to try one. I love the way it looks. Robyn wants me to make one for her and Cara wants me to make one for Whiskers. I don't think Whiskers wants a hat though. The hat was super easy since it is a variation of the hats I usually make. I had to improvise the ears a little, but I think they came out ok. I am making a hat for her other granddaughter too. It is jester style hat. Who would have thought I would be have so much fun knitting hats?

Vernon

Robyn has been back at the needles again and has created yet another cute "softy". This one she has named Vernon. I have no idea where the name came from, but it seems to suit him. She says Vernon loves music and can often be found by the stereo, jamming to his tunes. Vernon joins an already filled softy area of her room. He will have plenty of buddies to hang out with.

Rosaleen

Isn't she cute? Robyn has been making felted animals. I asked her to make me one to give to Cara's teacher, who will be having a little girl in a couple of weeks. This bunny is perfect and is named Roseleen. I am in awe of Robyn's knitting skills. I can knit and purl, but I don't venture further than that. She decided she wanted to knit animals so she bought a pattern. When she came to a stitch she didn't know, she went to YouTube and watched a tutorial and off she went. If you go to her deviantart site you will see pictures of some of the animals she has done. Cool huh?
