Have to work ahead of time so here are some new slippers for the upcoming winter season!

The possibilities for design and colour combinations are endless.

Another cute animal from Little Cotton Rabbits website, a Foxy girl this time.

I had been eyeing her a for a while already but when I saw an alteration on this fox to make it into a reindeer (for Christmas) I was definitely sold.

So here she is.


And the reindeer change-up.

I had a request to make a typical Canadian animal with a red and white dress.
I couldn't find a pattern that pleased me so I ended up altering the bunny pattern (from Little Cotton Rabbits) into a beaver, with small ears and added some big teeth. I embroidered a maple leaf on the front of the dress.
It turned out pretty nice so I'm pleased.
And so was the customer!

Cute, cute, cute!
These mini bunnies and bears are a new pattern from Little Cotton Rabbits.
Perfect for babies, all in one piece, no buttons.
Only about 14cm high (knitting on 2.5mm needle).
Had a great time using up all kinds of leftover yarn.

Here they are, a whole new set of bunnies, bears, pigs, cats and mice! Take your pick.  The bunny stays my favourite, but the others come close.  It also depends on what clothes they are wearing.

After a nice (unexpected) trip to Holland to see family and friends I'm back home again and ready for some new projects.
Bought some beautiful Unicat yarn at my favourite store in Arnemuiden to make shawls for my girls.
Too bad I was held back by the limited amount of suitcase space otherwise I could have brought back a lot more. This has to do for now. Can't wait to start on it.
Also need to restock my stuffed animal display, so that means back to work in a hurry!

Update September 20, 2019
One shawl done (for myself, the girls can't decide yet which pattern to use).

I love this pattern Secret Paths, available for free on Ravelry
