Harriet the Penguin

This was a gift from my friend Russ to his wife Bekah. She named her Harriet.

Merry Christmas to the meows... Part 2

Here are the other three toys! The acorn is the only one of these three that has a shape. The one with the disks, balls, and bells is a recreation of a rubber and plastic cat toy I saw in the store. I like it with the wood and yarn much better. The other is a string toy made out of very fuzzy yarn. It looks like something that a kitty would like to pounce on.

Merry Christmas to the meows... Part 1

Kitty toys! Merry Christmas to Sylvi and Zach. I still have 3 more to make before tomorrow, but for now, here are the mouse, ball, and jellyfish. They all have bells in them to weight them down and also just because bells are so much fun. I hope the kitties like them!

Fuzzy Ele

Almost the same elephant as the others, but with some adjustments. I made him bigger to accommodate for the fuzzy yarn. The smaller size would have been too busy I think. I also made the trunk much shorter than it asked for and tacked it into the body on the round with a slip stitch. I didn't attach the ears all the way around again. I like it loose much better.

Fuzzy Balls

More fuzzy balls! A friend had me make these for her kids for their stockings. I really like how they turned out. They really are better in person than in pictures. They are fuzzy and soft and I have grand ideas to turn the pattern into little monsters at some point.
